We are going to leave Mexico in three days and go to Cuba. I am looking forward to going to Cuba because I want to see the old cars and the smallest bird in the world, the Male bee humming bird.

Yesterday in the 5th July my dad told me the story of Mexico and Christopher Columbus. I think that will help me a lot with the Aztecs. I can also talk about before and after the Aztecs in Mexico.

We also went to Xcaret, which is a water park. We saw some pumas, spider monkeys and even some flamingos. We went snorkelling and I found some coral in the water. We are staying in the playa de Carmen. When translated in english its the beach of Carmen. I watched TV. I saw a jaguar as well!
