I spent this christmas in Poland at my grandparents house. In Poland we open our presents on the christmas eve (the 24th). I got Play Station 3( with 2 games), a puzzle globe and I don't remember what else... In Poland on christmas eve you are supposed to have 12 dishes on the table and another plate if anybody from outside comes.
Then on the 1st of January 2009 my mum, my dad, my brother and I flew to Hurghada in Egipt. We stayed there for 1 week nd we had o much fun!!! WE went on a 1 day trip to Luxor, where we saw the graves of the Egyptian pharaos. We also went on a glass-floor boat, where we saw a lot of fish and coral reefs!
It was great!!!!!!!

The "Hugs for the Lonely" drive, which will run December 1st to 21st, is going national this year after a local Red Cross chapter in Västerås, west of Stockholm, made around 300,000 kronor selling embraces last year. People pay the Red Cross, and the money goes towards helping people, and then for every hug sold, a child gets a hug. The Red Cross also has an E-Shop where they sell cards, presents, calendars and much more and the money goes towards helping people all over the world. You can also donate a certain amount of money to help people e.g. you can pay $10 to help give transport to people who need medical care, or $50 to provide water purification tablets, enough to make 250 liters of safe drinking water, etc.

Her mum left earlier and it seems she will not come back... Sal doesn't like Margaret very much, and when her grandparents plan to take a road trip to visit her mother's last known location and she goes with them.

The novel ends when Sal's grandmother has to go to the hospital from a lizard's bite. Sal's grandfather gives Sal the keys and she drives to her mum's last known location, where she gets stopped by the sheriff. Later the reader finds out that Sal's mother died in an accident when the bus she was on tumbled over a cliff. Everyone was killed, except Margaret, which is why Sal's father is spending so much time with her. Back at the hospital, Sal's grandmother also dies. At the end of the story Sal, Grandpa, and Sal's dad move back.
