Hi Kids!!!
I was writing in the last publication that the next country, which I want to describe is Africa. So, I want to write something about South Africa and I want to show you interesting destinations there.
It’s no wonder that South Africa draws more visitors than anywhere else in sub-Saharan Africa. World-class wildlife-watching, cosmopolitan cities like the great big beating heart of Johannesburg, stunning natural panoramas from Table Mountain National Park and vibrant cultures make the country appealing to almost every taste and budget. Geographically, its extremes include the arid semidesert of the Karoo, the snowcapped peaks of the Drakensberg Range, the lush subtropical coast of KwaZulu-Natal and the fertile temperate valleys of Western Cape. Within the space of a day, you can journey from vineyard-clad hillsides in the Western Cape to the vast open spaces of the Kalahari; from waterfront chic in Cape Town to isolated Zulu villages; from elephant-spotting in Kruger National Park to the sublime seascapes of the coast. While it’s easy to focus on the glitz and developed infrastructure, you’ll only get below the surface by seeking out the country’s other face – most visible in the sprawling townships where far too many people live stalked by the shadows of hunger, poverty and one of the highest HIV/AIDS infection rates in the world. Behind its incredible natural beauty, South Africa is the stage for the daily drama of one of the world’s greatest experiments in racial harmony. The intensity of this drama surrounds you wherever you go, and is likely to be one of the most fascinating and challenging aspects of your travels.
Bye, bye!!!

A teenager has killed 15 people in south-west Germany after attacking his old school with a gun. Nine pupils and three teachers at the school were among those shot and killed by the 17-year-old boy. The attack started around 9.30am in Germany when the teenager went into the school and started firing. He killed a number of people before stealing a car and driving to a nearby town. Police founded him there and he was killed after a shoot-out.
The gunman hasn't been named officially, but people who live in the area in Germany have said he is called Tim Kretschmer. People, who knew him said, that he went shooting in a forest every day. His father have had a collection of weaponry.
The leader of Germany, Chancellor Angela Merkel: "It is unimaginable that in just seconds, pupils and teachers were killed - it is an appalling crime.“
This is a day of mourning for the whole of Germany.

The car-scrapping bonus will actually help the car giants as Kia, Volkswagen and PSA Peugeot-Citroen, that have plants in Slovakia. This is one of the ways that the government of Robert Fico is planning to assist the car industry in Slovakia.
Owners of cars which have been in use for the past ten years and were registered on the territory of Slovakia before December 31, 2008, might be soon eligible for a €2,000 bonus to have them scrapped, providing they buy new ones. The cabinet decided on March 4 that the minimum sum, the state would provide, would be €1,000. If a car dealer were to contribute a €500 discount, the state would match it by paying another €500 of the buyer’s final bill. But the car-scrapping bonus will only apply to new cars with price under €25,000.
Not only private individuals but also the self-employed and legal entities will be eligible for the scrapping bonus.

Dutch officials have recovered eight paintings by artists, including Pissarro and Renoir, that have been missing since 1987. The works, dating from the 17th and 19th Centuries, were found in the south of the country after they had been offered for sale.
Two men and a woman were arrested and will appear in court on Monday. The investigation has yet to determine where the paintings have been for more than 20 years. The paintings were found in the towns of Valkenburg and Walem.
The works were by 17th Century artists David Teniers, Willem van de Velde and Jan Brueghel the Younger, as well as 19th Century painters Eva Gonzales, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Camille Pissarro and Paul Desire Trouillebert.
Dutch officials have not given any further details.
Gunmen have attacked a bus carrying the Sri Lankan cricket team on its way to play in the Pakistani city of Lahore. At least six policemen escorting the team bus were killed, along with a driver. Seven cricketers and an assistant coach were injured. The Sri Lankan wicketkeeper Kumar Sangakkara told that he and his team probably owed their lives to their bus driver. He said, that the driver just kept driving the bus and that's probably what saved them."
Pakistani officials claims, about 12 gunmen were involved, grenades and rocket launchers have been discovered. The incident has a lot of similarities to deadly attacks in Mumbai in India last November.
The BBC's Barbara Plett, in Islamabad, says that the attack was realised in nature with one group of gunmen firing a rocket-propelled grenade in order to create a diversion, while others then came, firing guns on the convoy.
Sri Lanka's assistant coach Paul Farbrace told: "There was a lot of shouting people and when I got to the floor I realised that the blood that I could see was coming from me."
The Sri Lankan visitors had been given inadequate protection.
Obviously this was one of the worst security failures in Pakistan.
