Hey it's me again! My last place I am visiting is the Erbo River Delta. It is in Spain. The capital is Madrid. France is one of the only countries that surround it. The Atlantic Ocean, Mediterranean Sea, and the Balearic Sea are all bodies of water that surround it. The Coordinates for Spain are 41 degree 22' 60 N and 2 degree 10' 60 E. The climate varies in Spain, due to it's large size. Visitors can generally expect a Mediterranean climate, characterized by hot, dry summers and mild, rainy winters. Spain is very pretty, it has great geography there. The Roman presence in the Peninsula followed the route of the Greek commercial bases; however, it commenced with a struggle between this great empire and Carthage for the control of the western Mediterranean during the second century B.C. I got here by plane. It cost around $1,000. I thought this was a great experience for me because I learned so much about other people's cultures and what they do and stuff like that. I learned a lot about how to use a map! My family is glad to have me back. The minute they saw me they wanted to know everything about my trip and the people I had met.

Hey it's me again! this next place is the Burdekin River Delta. It is located in Queensland Australia. The capital is Brisbane. Northern Territory, West Australia, New south whales, and South Australia. The Indian Ocean and the South Pacific Ocean are two bodies of water that border it. The GPS coordinates are 19* 50' 48”S 147*24'44. The climate is very tropical. It looks very interesting compared to the other places that I have been to. People settled there in 1839. I got there by plane. It cost about $1000. There were no problems getting there. The biggest difference is probably the weather.

This week I am going to the Gangetic Delta. This is located in India on the continent of Asia. The capital of India is New Delhi. China and Pakistan border India. The Indian ocean borders it. The GPS coordinates are Latitude of India: 20º00´ North of the Equator, Longitude of India: 77º00´ East of Greenwhich. It is nice weather, warm. The location is beautiful there. This location doesn't mean that much to me yet.. but once I get there it might mean more than i could imagine. I got here by plane. It cost about $800. This time was very easy and relaxing. I think the biggest difference had to be between the food and the weather and all of the people that I met along the way.

Im going to the Nile River delta. It is in Egypt in Africa. Libya and Sudan border Egypt. South Atlantic ocean and the Indian Ocean are two bodies of water that surround Egypt.The GPS coordinates are 29 degrees 52' N, 31 degrees 20' E. The climate range from 7° C at night to 43° C during the day. The location is dry but pretty. I think this location is important because it is on my way to travel the world's deltas. I got here by plane. It cost about $850. The traveling was nice and peaceful. The biggest difference between the stops have been the weather and what the scenery is like.

I'm visiting the Parana River delta. It is located in Uruguay. The capital is Montevideo. Argentina and Brazil border Montevideo. The South Atlantic ocean is the only ocean that borders Uruguay. GPS coordinates: 59° West and 34° South.The average temperature range is 70°- 82°. The Parana River delta is pretty but it has a lot of weird looking trees, but i think it is a pretty neat place. The history is mostly like other places. But this is different because it was taken over by Spanish people. I think this location is important because it is not the prettiest place but it's an interesting one. I got to the Parana river delta by boat and it was about $150.

I'm visiting the Mississippi river in the U.S. The capital is Washington D.C. Canada and Mexico border this country. The Gulf of Mexico and the North Pacific and Atlantic oceans. I don't know the GPS coordinates yet. It is warm but the weather can sometimes vary. The location is very beautiful just like a lot of the other deltas. A lot of people used to go fishing and hunting in the Mississippi region. This region is important to me because it is the one of the only deltas in the U.S I will be visiting.
