My family and I had gone to Penang for a holiday. We arrived at the Ferry Terminal just as the sun was setting. My father paid the fare at one of the toll-booths and we were brought into a lane. We had to stop behind a row of cars to await the arrival of the next ferry. Presently a light yellow ferry arrived. Cars and motorcycles sped out of it. Then the green light came for us to board. My father carefully drove the car onto the lower deck of the ferry. It was an exciting new experience for me. I noticed the words "Pulau Undan" on a wall of the ferry. As soon as the ferry was filled with cars and motorcycles on the lower deck, it left the terminal and proceeded towards the island. I stood at the front end of the ferry and watched the water whirl and twirl as the ferry cut through it. My sister and I climbed up the stairs to the upper deck. It was filled with passengers who either sat on the seats there or loitered around the area. Soon the short ride ended. We hurried back down to the lower deck and got into our car when we saw Penang Island loom closer and closer. Finally the ferry docked and my father followed the row of cars out of the ferry. The car bumped a bit on the uneven ramp but soon we were on Penang itself. My first ferry ride was over. http://www.englishdaily626.com/junior_english_essays.php?024

Chiang Mai is a lovely town. I could easily stop here and not come home. The hills around are full of ‘hill tribe’ people in different ethnic costumes, all with their own customs, dances and languages. We went for a four day trek, sleeping in the villages, which sounds idyllic but in fact we were very lucky not to get kidnapped!! There are a lot of bandits involved in opium smuggling in and out of Burma, and the Burmese side is in a state of civil war. We were having lunch by the river, and suddenly we were surrounded by a dozen or so gorillas in jungle camouflage. Luckily our guide spoke their language, and even better we weren’t armed so the gorillas could see we were only tourists. We gave them our cameras and money, and they helped themselves to all the food, but apart from that we are lucky to be alive! Next stop Hong Kong. Regards, John 27.

Algae is a name for thousands of different organisms. They include singlecelled plants as well as kelp and other large plants. Many experts also consider plant-like bacteria to be a form of algae. These bacteria make food from the sun like plants do. But one company, Blue Marble Energy in Seattle, Washington, uses algae already growing along coastlines. Workers pump it into bags on a boat. They have to be careful not to suck up young fish or other small creatures. Blue Marble says its work could help prevent harmful algae blooms. A bloom is when a dense area of algae forms and spreads. Some blooms can harm people, animals or the environment. Warmer water can cause blooms, and some scientists think global warming is adding to an increase in large ones. Nutrients from sewage and agricultural fertilizers also help algae grow. Excerpt from VOA Text
