Hawaii- The 50th state


 

 I recently went to Hawaii, and let me tell you, it's AMAZING! Let me tell you a little bit about my journey...




MAUI

 Our first stop was Maui. We stayed at papakea resort in a nice 3 bedroom condo. Now, some must-see sights are Hana highway, iao valley state park and there are many more! Also, (you probably know this) but make sure you visit a beach! Beaches are like the #1 thing about Hawaii! Another thing is the shaved ice! It is delicious! It's a popular Hawaiian dessert that is delicious!Better then ice-cream! (in my opinion) . I also went snorkeling which was really fun and must do in Hawaii! I got a couple of souvenirs but the things that really stuck were memories. I hoped you all liked my short essay and keep reading my blog for a new story!

The Giant Panda


  How many times have you seen a panda and Wondered about them? Their history, their food and their threats? If you have, you came to the right place! Keep reading to find out more about pandas!

LOOKS  
The Giant Panda has a black and white coat. Adults usually are about 4 to 6 feet in length and weigh about 75-125 pounds! The giant panda has 6 fingers. The thumb is really just a bone that helps the bamboo. The giant Panda can live up to 30 years old! 

 
BEHAVIOR 
  In China, the panda roams around freely. The panda is a solitary animal which means it likes to be alone. Females are not in charge of other females other then their child. Even though the panda is playful, it can also attack humans. Most animals attack humans by aggression, but the panda attacks a human out of irritation.
FUN FACTS
Did you know that the panda is not a bear! It's really a raccoon! It is mistaken for a bear because it
looks very similar to a bear!

So did you learn anything new about the panda? I hope you did!
