Practical 6a & b

MY DREAM HOLIDAY!!

I'm always going to the same destination for holiday every year.. every single year.. EVERY SINGLE YEAR!! I'm such a poor pauper=.= So anyway.. My dream holiday would be a trip to Paris~ France~ Eiffel Tower~ Oh pull me back to earth please.

As I said, Eiffel Tower!! I must visit that! I heard a lot from my friends who just returned from a trip there. Seems like they visited at the right time! It was national day and the Eiffel Tower is like this

alright, so anyway, for this practical 6, I've gotta blog about my dream destination via a tourism/travel related websites. So, I found this, with the help of yahoo search.

The keywords I used is "(holiday or tour) and (Paris or France)". The design of the website is not very attractive, but plain. However, the information are useful and substantial. Layout is also very neat and tidy, guiding my eyes smoothly to what that are necessary for me to read before I decide on the trip. The site provides me with a lot of information with regards to all the places of attraction to visit in Paris, and essentials such as tours, transportation, cuisines, etc.

The most important factor that I need while getting information on the destination for my dream holiday is, of course nothing but pictures!! This is because I've never been to the place before, hence there ought to be a lot of pictures to serve as an 'appetizer', before deciding on whether a trip there would be worth the money.

The reason why I chose Paris varies. Firstly, it's because I've always thought of Paris as a place of romance and holiness, with a lot of cathedrals where marriages are held. Secondly, it's due to the recent return of my friends. Their comments stirred up my curiousity and interest. Thirdly, it's because I've always wanted to see the Eiffel Tower!! I only get to see it in movies=( Well, so that's as simple as that. Now, it's pictures time..!
