My favourite book

I've read a lot of books in my life, but the best book in my opinion is "Crusade in jeans", from 1994 and its writer is Thea Beckman.
This books is about a boy that travels across the time and he appears in 1212, in the Middle Age.
He experiences many obstacles and calamities with his new friends, until he manages to arrive his time.
I read it when I was fifteen years old, and it shoked me.
In my opinion, it's the best book I have read.

Film or book

In my opinion a better film was "Three colors: Blue" from 1993 and the director was Kieslowski (more or less). It's the first of the trielogy of fims dealing with contemporary French society. It's about how the wife of a composer deals with the death of her husband and child. Of course it's a drama and it stars Juliette Binoche. Movie shows sensations and feelings communicated almost exclusively across the light, the music, and the looks. I think it's a masterpiece.
Dear Carmen!
We've arrived at Eurodisney, and it's terrible (for me) and worderfull (for my children).
We're staying in "an authentic old Wester town surrouning, Disney's Hotel Cheyenne".
About the weather, it has been fantastic so we've spent hours at the outdoor pool and at the whirlpool bath. It's posible to go some sporting activities (golf, treetop adventure trail, skating rink, an more activities) but we haven't played because we haven't free time.
Well, we are going to have dinner.
We see you the nest week.

My village

Hello everybody!
My village has about 2.300 inhabitants. It's near the cost, more or less than 4 km from the sea. It has beaches in the north, and it has a big village in the east, Castro urdiales, and another in the west, laredo.From the house windows i can see mountains and forests. The landscape is a beautiful valley with a river runs throught it. It's very quiet. But there are somethings than I don't like. There aren't libraries, cinemas, art galleries, train station, ect. We need to take private transportation to go to work, the student's institutes, to the cinema, to the swimming pool..... to too much activities!. I think, it's a problem!
