Iceland ashes in Sweden

Hallo Cornwall Hill!

This is how it looked; clouds of ashes from the volcano in the air. It was sunny but suddenly black hail fell down from the sky. My eyes hurt and my hands were full of ashes, it stopped hailing after about 20 minutes.

Niklas in our class put a white plate in his garden to see if it would turn black during the night of the ash, and it did!

My family are taking our bikes very often instead of taking the car.
I bought bananas and took the bike instead of taking the car.

We have a cover over our pool so the heat stay in the water.
