Hola amigos! Hi everyone!

Mr Apple ya está en Francia. Esta mañana le hemos conocido por fin en la clase de español!. Todos estábamos muy nerviosos e impacientes.
Nos ha encantado su color rojo y su bolso. Genial!

Dentro de la caja hemos descubierto las cosas que acompañan en el viaje a Mr Apple: un patín para el hockey sobre hielo; una camiseta de un equipo de béisbol, una gorra, cromos de pokemon.

También teníamos una sorpresa: unas pulseras de muchos colores para nosotros!!!! GRACIAS!

Mr Apple va a pasar el fin de semana en casa de Bilal. Seguro que se lo va a pasar muy bien. Nos lo contará el lunes.

Hemos hecho un video con el señor Hesse, nuestro profesor de tecnología. Podréis verlo pronto.

Mr Apple has already arrived in France. We finally met him this morning during our Spanish class!

We all were very impatient and nervous.

We loved his red color and his luggage. Cool!

We’ve discovered Mr Apple travel things into his box: an ice hockey skate, a NY baseball team shirt, a cap, Pokemon trading cards.

We also found a surprise: colored bracelet to us!!!! THANKS!

Mr Apple will spend the weekend at Bilal’s home. We’re pretty sure he will have a great time. He will tell us himself next Monday.

We’ve made a video with Mr. Hesse, our Tech teacher. You’ll see it soon.
