Lighthouses At Christmas

lighthouses at christmas
A Christmas Carol ?? PLEASE HELP !!?

Stave 3:

What are 3 significant things we learn about the Crachits?

What is the purpose of going to the lighthouse and the ship?

After visiting the celebrations at the Crachits' house and at his nephew's house, how does Scrooges attitude begin to change?

Describe the change called "Yes and No" that Scrooge witnesses at his newphews Christmas party.

What are the names of the boy and girl pulled from the Ghost's robes at the end of the stave? What is written on the boys brow?

THANKS (:

I can answer your third question- funny because we are reading the same book and are on the same chapter(actually we just finished stave 2).
The celebrations at the peoples houses changed Scrooge's attitude because it made Scrooge realize that even people who aren't as wealthy as him can still have a great Christmas. It also showed Scrooge to be happier and to not worry about his job so much.

Where to Stay? Unique Accommodation!

When you normally sit down to plan your holiday, do you ever wonder what else is available for accommodation? Sure, the beach cabin is fantastic, the service and convenience at the hotel is second to none, and you may not get closer to nature without camping. But wouldn’t it be neat to do something just a little bit different these holidays? This thought occurred to me while researching my next trip, and I stumbled across a few ‘unique’ holiday ideas currently available. 

Here are some of the more unusual accommodation options that you might like to try: 

Australia: Byron Bay Lighthouse: Spend a night or two in the most easterly point in Australia, in the lighthouse that was built in 1901. Be woken by brilliant sunrises, watch the passing parade of dolphins and whales, and watch the sun disappear at dusk into Mt Warning.

Canada: Stay in a spherical tree house in Qualicum, British Columbia. Experience the west coast rainforest of Vancouver Island and overnight in a 9’ diameter sphere made of yellow cedar and are perched high amongst the trees. Check out www.freespiritspheres.com.

New Zealand: If you’re not sure what type of holiday stay you’d like, head to Woodlyn Park in Waitomo, where you’ll have the choice of staying in a converted train, a 1950’s Bristol Freighter Plane or you can live like a hobbit in a fantastic hobbit house hotel. See www.woodlynpark.co.nz 

Italy: Travelling with a few friends? One house just not quite enough? Why not hire a small village? Seriously! Rent a medieval hamlet set high in the romantic hills of Umbria that has been restored and can sleep up to 20. ‘Borgo San Biagio’ comes complete with 1,000 year old tower, separate cottages, chapel and shared dining room. Go to: www.tuscanestates.com/umbria_borgo_san_biago.php.  

USA: Canine enthusiasts should check out the Dog Bark Park Inn in Cottonwood, Idaho. Spend the night in the world’s biggest beagle, complete with doggie decorations.

Switzerland: The Gstaad Igloo Village is built 1550 meters above sea level on the Egglie Mtn near Gstaad. This unique village is open from Christmas day to the beginning of April each year, where you can enjoy fantastic skiing during the day, enjoy the magnificent and unique ice sculptures in the village then spend a night or two in an authentic, yet cosy igloo. 

And this is just the tip of the iceberg. This time round, have a good search around before booking your next holiday, and see if there’s something just a little bit different that takes your fancy.
