Day 3 - Paris (personal post)

 Today was a long but exciting day. I got to go to Giverny and Versailles. Monet Garden was so pretty. The house was pink and green on the outside. I want to live in Monet house when I'm older. It was also cool to see the bride where his most famous painting is base on. Versailles was also cool to walk through. It was so big but pretty. I get why Marie was so luxury and always threw parties there. I also got to see the temple there but unfortunately I didn't take any picture. I can say today was a great day.





I love his house!

    Audrey, I loved seeing the pictures on your blog post! You might want to re-read the prompts and expand your comments a bit. The final will ask specifics about Paris as a cultural capital, and you have a lot of photographic evidence that you might have answers to these questions! I'm excited to hear what you have to say about it!

    Great photos! That garden and bridge is amazing. Someone should think about making a painting of it. They would probably be famous.

Madrid: Archaeology Museum

  The room that really stood out to me was the room dedicated to the prehistoric age (caveman era). This room really opened my eyes to how inventive they were back then. They weren't wasteful and made sure everything they collected had a use to it. Animals bones and rocks were use to make weapons and tools to help out their society. They were also very creative and incorporated artwork into their society. They painting in cave told stories important to them and craved images into bones to shows their status in their society. They cared about pottery and used objects to show off their status just like we do in modern times. I think the prehistoric ages are important to Madrid historically because it is literally dedicated to how the people back then used their environment to function in society. That era shows the deep history of Madrid and give example of what's tools they used to get food and to make art. It also bring people a deeper understanding on what was important to Spa...

Anne Frank

  Today I got to walk through the place where Anne Frank and her family hid from Nazis for two years. Anne Frank is well known for writing about her experience of the holocaust. She was only 13 when she had to go into hiding. She was just a kid and had so much to live for. Unfortunately, she didn’t make it out of the holocaust alive.  Even though she was limited to stay in the house, she still had hope for the future and tried to see the positive in things . Honestly, Anne Frank is an inspiration in my life. She was so young when she had to go through something bad but she still had dreams. She reminds me to alway look at the positive in things. I think what makes her contribution in society important was her age. In her diary, readers can totally see Anne’s personality. She wrote down what she was going through personally. People feel sympathy for her because she was robbed of so much in her life. It shows how bad the holocaust was. Having Anne be the symbol of what Jews we...

Lise Meitner

 what Lise Meitner is a great example for women in science. Meitner grew up and went to a university in Vienna where she was the 2nd women to graduate in physics. Vienna wouldn't offer her a lab because she was a women so she moved to Berlin. Berlin gave her a workshop for a lab. She was also the first female professor in Physics in Germany. During World War One, she was an x-ray nurse-technician and discovery the element protactinium. During World War Two, she lost all her positions and her lab because she was jewish. She had to move to Sweden to escape the Nazi's. She was offer to join the Manhattan Project but decline because she didn't want to be part of group that was responsible for building a bomb (thought it was unmoral).  I think what makes Lise Meitner contribution to Berlin and to the World so important is that she was an example that women deserve a role in science. She also shows that you don't have to lose your humanity to achieve greatness. She discover a...
