 Heraklion was our first stop in Greece, located on the island of Crete, the biggest island in Greece. After flying from Cyprus, we arrived in Heraklion at 2:00 AM, so we had to wait until the next day to do anything.  The next day we slept in because we went to sleep so late, but quickly got on the move after that. We went to multiple museums of Greece's history, like the Greek inventions museum and the Greek artifacts museum.    This invention made by the Greeks is my one of my favorite inventions [first one above] and is used to send messages from a far distance. The way that it works is that both of the people sending a message to each other have one of these things, and the first step is to hold out the torch until the other person does the same, then you wait 3 seconds before turning on the tap on the barrel below [you cant see it in the photo]. As you are letting the tap go, the stick above starts moving down slowly. When you want to send the  message, yo...

After staying in the dead sea in Jordan, he took a short plane to Cyprus, a country in the Medeterranian Sea, making it my first country in Europe that I have visited in my life! This week we planned to stay with some of my parents friends in a small village 2 hours away from the airport. When we arived, their two kids named Saffet and William were very excied to see us, since there are not that many kids in the village. They showed us around there farm and their house. On their farmland, they grew oranges, lemons, starwberrys, almonds, and pommegranate.

 The Dead sea is known for its insane level of salt in the water- more then 6x the amount of salt then the ocean, and also known to be the lowest point on earth. The insane level of salt is so strong that you are so boient in the water, making it really hard to drown.  On the first day we went strait to the sea to see what it was like, and it felt so weird, and it stung my cuts so badly because of the salt. This guy who worked at the hotel also put mud on our body and then rinsed our skin off to make our skin smooth.  The next day [it was out final day there because there is not much to do there and its a really expensive town too], we went into the sea again, but you can only stay thre for like 20 minutes because it hurts your open cuts and mosquito bites.This  town was also across from isreal so we could see it while we were in the sea!  Overall, if you choose to stay here, only stay here for about 1-2 days, because there is not anything to do besides swim in ...
