In these chapter Alex didn`t say what he`s thinking if Dani and he were watching the dolphins. Dani said that they were like the dolphins...they can travel where they want and were free. But Alex thought that they weren`t like the dolphins because they cannot decide where they go....the manager tells them where they have to go because they must play and give interviews...they weren`t free.
Do you agree or disagree??? Please write a comment!

Father and son (7th chapter)

After reading chapter 7:
1. Comment on the following quote: "And, of course, Alex understood only too well." (p.43, l.33)

In my opinion it means that Alex were able to understand a little bit more why his dad had left him and his mother. Maybe he felt like his dad when he told him why he did leave them.

2. Write a different ending of the chapter: "That night, when Alex had gone to sleep, TOM picked up his diary and began writing." (compare p.43, l.34f)

Dear diary!
Alex have been in Australia for a month. I`m so happy about seeing my son. I hope he´ll understand me and my feelings about leaving him and his mum! He has already grown up, so many years I want to cantact him but I didn`t do that. I feel very sad about my own scare that he don`t like me....because finally he is here and we talk to each other! I`m so happy!!!!! I know that he can`t see his fahter in me but I hope his see myself as a good friend! I`m thankful for seeing him now and so we´re going to stay two more nights on Whitsunday Island!!!!

After read the 6th chapter: Into the rain forest

What did Ales say? Where you right? Give evidence from the text.

After a small talk he asked Tom why he didn`t send a Cristmas card (p.31 l.23). He became very angry when Tom laughed and made jokes and didn`t say a word for excuse himself (p.31 l. 20). He cried at Tom because he didn`t understand his father (p.32 l. 2). That showed that Alex was very angry and I think a little bit disappointed too.
His dad didn`t tell him in a detail way why he had left them but he said sorry for what he had done (p.32 l.9). Tom said that he tought he`d hate him and so he didn`t contact him(Alex)(p.32 l.10-11)!
But at the end Tom and Alex like each other even Alex felt that "he had lost a fahther but found a friend" (p.36 l.25).

Before read the 6th chapter

"Predict what Alex tells Tom when he meets for the first time after 16 years??"

I think that Alex ask his father why he had left his mother. I can imagine that they speak very serious to each other because they meet the first time after 16 years! I think too, that they get to know more about their lifes. They still like each ohter, I think.
What do you think??? Do you agree?
