Traveling Around the World

Read Susan and Mark’s travel notes:

Susan: My family and I visited Dubai last year. Dubai is in the United Arab Emirates. It was summertime. Dubai has a tropical desert climate, so it was 45 degrees! Yes, Dubai is one of the hottest cities in the world in summer. Even in winter, it is around 23 degrees and you can swim in the sea. It is also one of the busiest cities in the world. Many tourists and businessmen visit Dubai all around the year. The tallest skyscraper in the world is in Dubai. It’s called Burj Khalifa. It has got 163 floors. Dubai is a very new and modern city. It’s one of the cleanest cities I’ve ever seen. There was no garbage on the street at all.

Mark: Two months ago, I went to New York for a meeting. The city has got many art galleries and museums. It’s very popular with tourists. Around 50 million people visit New York City every year. Times Square has some of the tallest buildings in NYC. It’s always crowded and full of people. There are many parks. I really liked Central Park. It is one of the biggest parks in the city. There are restaurants and lakes there, and it even has a zoo.
