  Venice is the Queen (王后) of the Adriatic Sea (亚得里亚海). Every year thousands of people from all over the world travel to Italy to visit the city.

  Venice is a very beautiful city. It is quite different, from other cities in the world, There aren't any roads and streets in the city, so there aren't any cars and buses. There are many canals (运河) in the city. There is one big canal and one hundred and seventy-seven small canals. People move up and down the canals in boats to go to work, go shopping or visit their friends. But Venice is sinking (下沉). It is going down and the sea water is going up. In 2040 Venice will be under the water. The Adriatic Sea will cover (覆盖) the city. The Venetians love their city and they want to stay there. So they want to save Venice from the sea.

  Dear Roni,

  Italy is wonderful. We started in Rome two weeks ago, drove to Florence last week and now we're on our way to Venice. Three weeks just isn't enough.

  The country near Florence is so beautiful-hills, olive trees. And red roofs(屋顶) of the houses look so nice far away.

  I am afraid I am getting bigger-the food here is so delicious!

Love,

Akemi

  Hi Roni,

  I can't believe(相信) you went to school here in Honolulu! Why did you leave?

  I spend each morning on the beach(海滩) and in the water. The sand is so soft and the beaches seem so long. The water is just the right temperature.

  One afternoon, I left the beach to walk in mountains near Honolulu. I enjoyed myself very much there.

  How I miss you!

Mari

  Dear Roni,

  Maybe I'm strange but I love the desert(沙漠)!

  Last week, our group spent four days in the desert. At times, it felt like the moon.

  I always thought deserts were all the same! They are not. Some parts look like mountains; others are really different.

  And when we find something green--a few plam trees, a little water, we feel good and great.

  See you in September,

Kim
