◦ If you're not familiar with the Isle of Man, it's a green and pleasant island nation in the
middle of the Irish Sea. At only about thirty miles long, it has an incredible choice of
things to do and see - especially if you're a fan of beautiful landscapes. A day trip
around the Island can have you take in diverse and stunning landscapes and
fascinating historical sites. For such a calm and peaceful island, it has a long history of
conquest, kings, and ancient peoples.
If you head all the way north, you'll get to the Point of Ayre. There you'll find a
picturesque lighthouse on a long and open rocky beach. It takes seven hours and
eighty miles to do a full tour around the Isle of Man. A full and action-packed day from
the far north, right down to the south.

◦ The first human carrying flight technology was the hot air balloon. While unmanned
balloons have been around in some form for thousands of years, the first flight with
people on board was in 1782.
◦ The large balloon on top is called an "envelope". It holds hot air created by a heat
source known as a burner. The burner creates an open flame by burning a mix of
propane and air. Hot air balloons are capable of floating because the hot air inside the
envelope has a lower density than the colder air outside. The top of the balloon usually
has a vent which allows the pilot to control the speed of ascent or descent.
◦ Passengers typically stand in a basket beneath the envelope. While most envelopes
have a standard balloon shape, others are designed to look like animals, cartoon
characters and other fun objects.

◦ Everyone loves hobbits. Ask anyone who's a fan of The Lord of the Rings to choose their
favourite character and nine times out of ten it will be Samwise Gamgee. He's loyal,
innocent and determined and without him Frodo couldn't have saved Middle Earth. He
represents the Shire with all its comfort, safety and stability and these same attributes
make Hobbit Holes special.
◦ For those whose hearts belong forever in the Shire, there's a place they can go to.
Called Hobbiton, it's a movie set experience that's nestled in the heart of a small town
in New Zealand. Lush pastures are punctuated with 44 tiny Hobbit holes, the Green
Dragon Pub, Mill, double arched bridge and the famous Party Tree built directly into
the sides of rolling hills. The daily tours allow visitors to enter the small lairs and pretend
they're one of the mythical humanoids.

◦ Our world is full of mysteries. There are stunning icebergs, roaring waterfalls, dashing
jungles and many more. There are also singing sands in Kazakhstan. "Singing sands" is
the name of big dunes that produce various sounds in dry weather.
◦ The sounds can be heard several miles away and resemble sometimes organ music
and sometimes the roars of an aircraft engine. According to local legends, such sounds
are songs of desert ghosts and voices of fabulous beasts. Scientists however think that
the grains of sands create those sounds as they rub against each other under a wind
force.
◦ Another miracle can be seen in the Antarctic. These are waves frozen in the air. Of
course, it is not a real tsunami. Water cannot freeze instantly and in motion, even in the
freezing temperatures. This ice begins to melt in summer and then freezes again - many
years in a row forming natural sculptures for centuries.

◦ High in bamboo forests in the rainy mountains of China lives one of the world’s rarest
mammals: the giant panda. Only about 1,500 of these black-and-white relatives of bears
survive in the wild.
◦ Pandas eat almost nothing but bamboo shoots and leaves. Occasionally they eat other
vegetation, fish, or small animals, but bamboo accounts for 99 % of their diets. Pandas eat
fast, they eat a lot, and they spend about 12 hours a day doing it. The reason is they digest
only a fifth of what they eat. Overall, bamboo is not very nutritious. To stay healthy, they
have to eat a lot.
◦ The shape of teeth helps pandas crush bamboo shoots and leaves. To get the bamboo to
their mouths, they hold it with their front paws. A panda should have at least two bamboo
species where it lives, or it will starve. A lack of bamboo threatens the limited panda
population.
