I wanted to tell you about my voyage that I took to the Galápagos Islands that took about 5 years to take.

In light of this interruption, the religious routine of surfing generally vanished by the twentieth century.

In 1899 President Theodore Roosevelt started a project of building the Panama Canal. It is the 50 mile long water passage that connects the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. This passage is very useful because ships can travel through it and they don’t have to go all the way around the continent. This is the main purpose for this canal, to shorten the passage that ships have to travel. This saved a lot of money on fuel that ships had to use to go around the continent. People thought about building…
