Lavender..

Lavender Field Provence, France..

No doubt that every one loves flowers, and for me my favorite is lavender.  The lavender comes from the latin root lavare, which means "to wash". Lavender has this amazing violet color that you can not get enough from. Lavender oil has numerous ways of usage such as making soaps, perfumes, bath gel and also medication. The reason of using lavender in medicinal purposes that scientists found out that the smell of lavender has calming and soothing effects. Therefore, they use it for insomnia, anxiety and depression. Now, after all the facts that you know about lavender. Imagine that you can close you eyes and smell this lovely odor. Imagine that you can walk between tons of lavender. Stop imagining because actually you can experience this and make it true. How you will do this? by visiting the most astonishing and breathtaking lavender field in France. This field has tons of lavender that organized in lines. The way that they arranged in the field as you all will see in the pictures is outstanding. I have never been there, but someday I hope I will.

Lake Hillier..Its PINK!!!

One of the most amazing thing that I have ever seen was this lake. When I first saw the picture of this lake, I knew that this lake will be one of my top places that I want to visit someday. Now as I explain the fact of this lake, you all will know why I was astonished by this lake. Lake Hillier is located on Middle Island in Western Australia. It is pink-colord lake. This small lake is about 600 meters wide. However, the reason why its pink remains a mystery. This lake is circled by green forests that separated the lake from the ocean water. This lake was discovered by Matthew Flinders, a British navigator in 1802. He climbed the highest peak in Middle Island to observe the surrounding water and he discoverd this extraordinary pink lake. The scientists still investigating and searching about the reason of the lake pink-color. Some of their suggestions were low nutrient concentration and different types of bacteria and algae.

Café A Roma


     Café A Roma is very famous restaurant and café in Jeddah. It has the most delicious food ever. In the menu you can find a variety of food. They have all kinds of salads, pasta, pizza and sandwiches. My family, friends and I always love to go there when we are hungry and craving delicious food we prefer to go there.

When we enter the main entrance of the restaurant the first thing that we see is a small garden with a big fountain. The fountain has



incredible colorful lights that color the water to give a beautiful scene. As soon as we enter the restaurant, we smell the delicious and tasty food mixed with the smell of women’s perfumes and hookah. If we look on the floor, it is covered with this beautiful colorful ceramic. All the tables and chairs have incredible decoration with flowers and small pieces of green, yellow, red and ocean blue ceramic. For me the best dishes are chicken caesar salad, chicken fettuccine alfredo pasta and chili fries with cheese. The chicken caesar salad has this fresh, light green lettuce mixed with cubed chicken and
fresh parmesan cheese covered with caesar sauce. Chicken fettuccine alfredo pasta has soft, fresh long noodles mixed with creamy sauce and slices of chicken. The chili fries with cheese has these wonderful crunchy fries covered with sour cream, red beans and melting cheese. I really enjoy tasting this remarkable food while listening to music and chatting with my family and friends. I really love this place, and I love to go there always and adore eating my favorite
dishes. I highly recommend this place as one of the most astonishing restaurants in Jeddah.
