Barack Obama and his family in the Convention Center, but when I got there, I
discovered that I didn ́t have my press pass and I couldn t go inside. I walked around
the park outside the Center.

Although it was November, it was a warm night. The atmosphere was wonderful. When

results. Some people were quietly holding hands and smiling – others were tense and
nervous.

They felt that it was their moment. Suddenly I realized that this was a better place to
be than inside. I was watching Barack Obama ś victory through the faces of all these
people, African, Hispanic, Chinese, white. At about 11 o ć lock the results were
announced, and everybody went mad.

People started laughing, shouting and crying. But when Obama made his speech, they
all became quiet and emotional. There was one place to be on the planet that night –
and I was there.

Extreme Winter Sports “ ICE DIVING”

Ice diving is a sport for expert divers- and crazy ones, too!
Before you go ice diving, you put on special warm clothes and then you put on
an special diving suit called a “drysuit”. This is not the same as a normal diving
suit. It has air in it. The air keeps the diver warm, and also keeps him or her high
in the wáter. Ice divers carry oxygen on their backs, like normal divers.
A typical ice dive takes fifteen minutes. The diver climbs into a hole in the ice
and then swims under it. The other divers watch and wait. They are ready to
help in an emergency.
They can not see the diver, but they can often see his air bubbles under the ice.
So, what’s it like, under the ice? Ice divers say it is like another world-a bright
world of strange creatures, plants and rocks and amazing shapes and colors.
It is also great fun. Divers can turn over and put their feet on the ice. When their
Friends pull the rope, they move along, with their feet higher than their heads!

information. (N I) about it.
