More about Michael!

Hello Gummy Bears!

Here are some pictures and videos to get to know me and my homeland a little better.

This is a picture of me at the Grand Canyon. It is the largest canyon in the world. In some places it is nearly 2000m deep! Wow! For more information on the Grand Canyon, click here.

New Mexico has a very large Native American population. They have a really interesting culture. Some of the oldest cities in the United States are in New Mexico. The picture is of Taos Pueblo where Native Americans still live! The video is some of their traditional dances.

This is  the New Mexico state flag. Notice how it has the same colors as Spain's flag. It was actually part of Spain many many years ago. The sun in the middle is a Native American symbol called the Zia Symbol. It contains a lot of information for one tiny symbol.

I am from Albuquerque and it has the biggest hot air balloon festival in the world. It is called The Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta. Watch the video to see how awesome it is!

If you have any questions or want to know more, ask me in class!!

Michael

P.S. Here you can see Albuquerque on a world map. It is very far from Madrid!
