What a beautiful day we had on the island! I started my day with a carriage ride to the top of the island where some colleagues and I had some snacks and some tea and enjoyed the beautiful view. What a great place to be when not many people are there. We saw some horses on the way
and many other carriages and people enjoying themselves! 
My husband and I visited on Children's Day last year, and it was awful. We walked and walked and really went nowhere and then walked and walked some more and got some ice cream and a waffle and left the island. At least we can always end the day with some ice cream and a waffle even when the island is crowded!
I loved seeing all of you enjoying your time together and talking to people in the island. I was happy to see some students immediately plop down next to some of the elderly men who were sitting on the benches on the water's edge. I imagine not many people stop to talk, so it was nice to see young kids talking with older people in such a positive way.
I also thought that it was ingenious of some of you to interview your horse and carriage driver while he drove you to the top of the island. It was very resourceful and a good use of time. I only hope they realized you were sincerely interested in what they had to say.
Good job my little journalists! I hope your articles are as good as they already sound!

did we start newspaper writing activity????
No, we didn't start yet.
We are going to start it and she made an example for us (:
Ms. Clarks it was such a great day thank you for that. I really liked those people that interviewed with. They were all very likeable. I hope we'll go to Sedef Adası (where I go in summer) where the population is just 100 people:D
I liked being on the island, too. I hadn't seen the island before we went there. I really liked it there, but I actually wouldn't want to live there, because the island is so silent and there is not a lot of thing to do in the winter.
We usually go to Büyükada in summer with my friens or family but it was always crowded. This time is probably the best time to go there. Me and my friends really enjoyed ourselfes through the day.
I did my interview with a horse and carriage driver and he answered my questions in an unexpected way. I discovered he was a very open-minded and wise person in the ways he answered my questions. The interview affected me very much and I will write the details in my article.
We had a lot of fun. The only thing that we didn't ride was a donkey :P
I did interviewed a horse carrige rider just like Ece and he was really amazing. I thought that everyone who is living on the island are really open minded people because they helped us without any questions and they answered our questions unlikely open minded. :)
I had fun a lot on the island but i think we didn't have a really little time:(anyway buyukada was good.
As you said buyukada was perfect everything was great thanks a lot for this little trip(=(=
I really enjoyed the Büyük ada trip . I used to go there every summer at least 10 days to stay at my cousin's house but this year I couldn't go so ı'm glad that we had this trip.
