I am going to explain what i did last weekend. On Sunday, I got up and I went to go how my horse was.

There was a horse competition in Alaior.  At nine o’clock more and less I went to this city and We stayed until the half past one. I took part with other people. We were four people in my speciality. It was about menorquin  breaking-in.

It was very interesting and exciting. I am very happy with my horse whose name is Elegante. The truth is that we did a very good competition and we did not win but we were the seconds.

Great night in February.

Last Saturday all the people dressed up took to the streets for celebrates the carnaval 2012! 


There was many different costumes everywhere... Angels, Zombies, Cabarettes, Smurfs, Jesters... sometimes it was a mess distinguish people with so many masks, you did not know who were you talking at on the street but you smile to look good in front of them.
Throughout the night our feet could not take it anymore, but both foot pain was worth it.
Because the night was great! Everyone danced and passed it big! I would not have changed that night for anything more!

And I hope that next year be better!

protest at "cap de llevant"

                                           PROTEST AT "CAP DE LLEVANT"

I'm very angry! -Why?  Because while we are sitting and working in the school, the students of "cap de llevant" are having holidays. There are not exactly holidays, but they are protesting about the school because they haven't got any heating in the classrooms.

They say that until they have heating, they won't go to school

so they probably won't go until next Monday.

 -What do you think?

My experience !

Wales!!

When I was in year 6, I travelled with my family to Wales for ten months. It was an amazing experience, I learned lot of English, meet new friends and visit new places...
I staid in Beaumaris, a little village in Anglesey (Ynys mon). It is a very pretty village, situated in front of the sea, the houses are of different colours, and in the main street it is a fish and chips, an ice cream shop, lots of bread and breakfast, a pear ...

My school was also in Beaumaris, it wasn't very big but it was so fun, we didn't have homework and we done lots of classes in welsh so I didn't understand anything. We had to wear uniform; red jumper and grey trousers.

During the weekend we used to visit new places. Next to our house there was a castle and a woodland.

Here I show you some pictures of interesting places that we visited:

Curiosities: 

-Tide goes up and down every six hours

-Most of the days are windy, cloudy, cold...

-They don't celebrate the end of the year with grapes.

-The Welsh people get angry with you if you call them English.

-There are lots of pups!

...

I RECOMMEND YOU TO GO !

17 peoples died, 64 wounded and 29 missing.

This weekend We won the match again. It was cold again. We won the Union C.F. 2-0. Every time We are more near of the League.
This year We want to repeat the photo that you can see because We were the Champion in the 09-10.
I think this year, to be te winners will be more important because it is more difficult to win te league again than win the first time.

SECRET CODES

 Hi! I'm very fond of adventure stories, especially those of spies and mysteries. I want to talk about cryptology and decoding secret ciphers. I challenge you to solve my secret messages hidden here.

There are different ways to do it. I'll show you some.

One of them is just placing the code letters in a special order (a wave) and then writing the message on a line (one row after the other).

This is my first:

H L O M L Y     E L I' E O

Egyptians used hieroglyphics in their writings. This isn't a code, but a language. It's funny to decode hieroglyphics. I propose you a simple one:

The first to use codes were the Spartans. They use a cylinder (scytale) with a ribbon wrapped around. The message was writing across the ribbons, and then unwrapped for decoding. 

In Rome, Julius Caesar invented a wheel to code messages. It consisted on two wheels with the alphabet all around, placed one inside the other. So, the inner wheel showed the alphabet with the letters being moved seven positions further along. For example, A really represents G; B is for H, and so on. 

Third challenge with the Caesar's cipher: 

  QY     FIPY     YHAFCMB

In the 18th century, masonics (a secret society) used an original way of codification called the Pigpen Cipher. It's a substitution cipher which exchanges letters for symbols which are fragments of a grid. It's a bit hard at first but then, it's quite funny. Would you try with this one? 

Going on with grids, I show you another one based on a number grid. The decoding method is using the numbers as in a "battleship game". For example, A is number 11 (1 across, 1 down). 

Let's try to solve this code:

	1	2	3	4	5
1	A	B	C	D	E
2	F	G	H	I	J
3	K	L	M	N	O
4	P	Q	R	S	T
5	U	V	W	X	YZ

53   15   '   43   15               45   23   15          12   15   44   45                   13   32   11   44   44

And finally... Have you ever seen a word and read the same word upside down? They are called ambigrams and there are lots of them, which create great optical illusions. 

Here you are an example, and a website where you can ask for your name drawn by ambigrams.

Hope you've enjoyed decoding my little notes.
