Unit 12. A vacation abroad

Welcome teachers
to class 8C!
Mrs Quyen
We went swimming at Waikiki Beach as soon as we arrived on the Hawaiian island of Oahu. We took a small plane to Kilauea Volcano this afternoon. The lava was pouring out when we flew overhead. It was very exciting.
Today we went on an eight-hour tour which included Fisherman`s Wharf, the Napa Valley wine-growing area, and the famous prison on the island of Atcatraz in the middle of San Francisco Bay.
Chicago is often called "The Windy City". It`s situated right on the shore of Lake Michigan, one of the Great Lakes.
Yesterday while Dad was visiting the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building, I went shopping. I bought lots of souvenirs of our trip.
This is a picture of Mount Rushmore where the heads of four American presidents are carved into the rock. Mount Rushmore can be seen from more than 100 kilometers away.
