what do you believe there isn't from Greek islands when you visit them?
I'm Greek and I'm very proud about it. I'm from Patra( city)but i live in Kefallonia (island)now. In the summer, the things are wonderful there(Where? Because you've mentioned 2 cities you must identify which city you are talking about for clarity. Most often if you use a pronoun, though, the last subject mentioned is assumed to be the reference. However, for the sake of clarity, you should restate which you are talking about, Patra or Kefallonia. The sun shines and the sea has blue crystal clear water. This island combines green and sea with in an excellent way. There are a lots of places with different views. As wellAlso, there are shops, restaurants, bars and cafeterias for different tastes. However, I wonder if you're not Greek what you would miss when visiting the Greek islands that have not found.

The beginning of the Thanksgiving story takes us across the Atlantic to Europe where the Puritan Pilgrims were fleeing religious persecution. Seeking both religious liberty and an opportunity to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ to the natives of the New World, the Pilgrims took a dangerous trip to what is now known as America and landed at Plymouth Rock in 1619.
Squanto was an Indian who had learned English and had much interactions with Europeans and other inhabitants of the New World. This Native American taught the newcomers to America how to plant corn. When the harvest came the Puritans put on a dinner to thank God and Squanto for allowing them to survive a year in the New World.
Abraham Lincoln made Thanksgiving a National Holiday during the Civil War era in order for the nation to pause and thank God for what He has given to the nation and to our own lives personally.
The controversy surrounding Thanksgiving has to do with the conflict with that which has been the traditional view of Thanksgiving, and the historical revisionists' view of Thanksgiving. It is a controversy between an America with religious roots, and a secular America. Whatever happened with the Puritans and the New World, there is absolutely no mistaking the reason Abraham Lincoln made it a national holiday. Read Abraham Lincoln's Thanksgiving Proclamation to see for yourself. It has just a little over 500 words and is filled with references to God.

Last Autumn I moved to Saint-Petersburg. I have been here before many times, and I love this city. But now I want to describe my present feelings.
Before this Autumn I lived in Tver. It’s not a very small town. It has a long history, and old architectural monuments. It is similar to little Saint-Petersburg. But, all the same, my feelings are different.
Every day on the way to my job I admire rivers, and buildings, and beautiful old streets. I like the big area of this city. There are many parks, squares and wide streets. There is so much air above Neva…(meaning is unclear) In the evenings, all of bridges of Saint-Petersburg are illuminated. It is an interesting combination of old architecture and modern light elements. Every time when I drive on the Palace Bridge, I remember about the summer event of Saint-Petersburg: «The Singing Bridge». It was every night during this the summer. The bridge was opened to the classical music.
It is a young city compared with to Moscow or London, for example. But the atmosphere of Saint-Petersburg is so vintage and magical that you may thing think that it is the same ancient age as the oldest cities of Europe.
May be Maybe I will not look around me appreciate it a few years later. But for now, I think that I’ll admire this city every day during long days of my life.0 votedNovember 22, 20161Weather in my town
Good afternoon,
Today there is very bad weather in my town. It's cloudy, windy and rainy, and this morning I had a difficult time with my daily walk with the dog. Moreover, I went to work by car (usually I go by moto or bicycle). Unfortunately, it seems that there'll be rain all week, so maybe I will not be able to go jogging this week.
Cheers :)0 votedNovember 21, 20161
