Distance Place-own landscape poem
He hardly shinnies on the sky.
He feels tried, he sit on the mountain's top to relax.
He sit on the mountain like a children, he curiosity look around.
His comfortable chair- the big mountain is on the center of the water.
There is a widely water area in front of he.
The water reflection orange sunshine.
The water is like a soft silk, smooth-bumpiness.
Just like the people's life, seem wateriness, but the chance and change are always hidden in the corner in the life.
He elongates his neck to see the beautiful view.
The humidity blow on the face of him.
The obscure air like a veiling of the beautiful girl - mystery and dangerous.
Far away from lake there is a rocks pile.
The rocks are strange; they are like the waves on the sea.
When the wind through the rock the rocks are groan.
Everything is silent.
“Oh!” his exclamations, “It’s time to go.”
Far away the orange sun shinnies slowly.

An Alliance with the Huron Empire
2. Champlain wanted to alliance with the Hurons, because this can make he easy to occupy Quebec. His intent is to occupy Quebec to make this land become French colony. If he work together with Hurons, he will easy to finished his occupy. Hurons is a closely related with Iroquois. They are know iroquois very much. Champlain work with Hurons and helped he a lot.
3. In the picture there are two groups of solider fighting with each other. Both of these two groups are holding arrows on their hands. In the left there are no people hurt, but on the right there are several people lie on the ground. Between the two groups of people there is a man holding a gun in his hand and shooting to the right group of soldiers. In front of them, there is a lake. There are some canoes in the two side of the lakeshore.
I think this is not a real situation of this fight. In the picture Champlain stand between the Huron and Iroquois. Although he hold a gun in his hand, it too dangerous to stand close to Iroquois. The Iroquois maybe use hand to fight with him.

This map is about the border of the Canada and America. This map includes Quebec and Ontario, and some place in USA. There are also having some lake and bay. The Georgian Bay is in the middle of the map. The Georgian Bay is between Ontario and Huron Lake. There are many towns on the shore of the Georgian Bay: Parry Sound, Collingwood, Waylon, and Owen Sound...
The world "Bay" has three denotation meaning. The first one is the part of the sea extend in land. The second meaning is the part of the mountains caved in. The third meaning is the buildings that along the river or sea that use for obstruct flood.
5.
This photograph is about Georgian Bay's afternoon. There are many clouds in the sky. The sky has two colors: blue and yellow. In the water, there are some rocks.
6. When I see this picture, I feel the storm is very serious. The tree is slop by the big storm. All the branch and leaves is being blow to one side. The tree is growing in some rocks. Far away from the tree, there is also having some trees. These trees are slop too. The waves ran high in the sea. The clouds are mixed and disorder because of the storm.
7. "Cedar and jagged fir uplift sharp barbs" This half sentence successful creative the view of the tree sway in the big storm. The fir looks like very strange. Its surface of irregularity like jagged. The cedar and fir are both grow on sharp rocks.” against the gray and cloud-piled sky" This half sentence particular describe the sky. The sky is gray. There are many clouds in the sky. The cedar and fir are very high, like can against the sky. "In the bay blown spume and wind rift and thin, bitter spray snap" This sentence describes the view of the bay. In the bay there has blown spume in it. This explains that the water in the bay is opacity. There is some soil or sand in the water. “A wild duck calls to her mate, and ragged and passionate tones stagger and fall, and recover, and stagger and fall, on these stones” This sentence describe the duck is hardly walk because of the big storm. It fall and recover, and stagger and fall, many time. This explains the storm is very big so when the duck walk the storm will take it away. This made the duck fall without stop.
8. I learn The Huron is a group of first nation people that have closed relative with Iroquois. Huron and Iroquois are enemies. The Huron make an alliance with Champlain. The alliance is about Champlain and Huron work together to fight with Iroquois. The Huron have many economic advantages because they are having good location and territory. They are in the southern shore of the Georgian Bay. This is a good place to fishing. This region has much different kind of plants: forest, meadows, and field. The soil there has much sand. This sand is good to grow corn, squash, pumpkins, and beans.

After Port Royal - Champlain Continues
1. In this map, I can clearly see this name. This makes me happy, because if I can't see the name very clearly, it will make me confuse, worried about is it the map of St. Lawrence River. In the map I can see the border of the sea and the land very clearly. This is great! This make the reader save worried about the map.
2. There is a big, long bridge across the river. The sky is dark blue. It seems the night will come soon. The sky that far away from bridge is pink and yellow. The beautiful afterglow make the reader feel warm. Many skyscrapers spire in the left side of the river. The lights of them are green. This makes the picture a little slow dive and scared. The river is wide and long. It is Lyons blue.
This picture like a canvas. The trees in the picture is strange. The trees in the left are sear like in winter. The trees in the middle are growing exuberance like in summer. The afterglow is also beautiful. On the middle of the dark blue sky there is a brightness moon.
3. Choose a river for transportation is easy to exploration. Use River can see the land and the view clearly. This makes a big convenience for explorer. Choose a river for exploration make the explorer easy to estimate aspects, and easy to travel.

www.uppercanadahistory.ca/finna/finna2.htmlThis is a picture of Champlain's habitation that in Quebec, although there are only black and white in this picture, we also can see how luxury the house is. This house is a big house! There are many rooms in the house. The house has two floors. The rooms that at second floor have balcony. There are some words on the walls. There are three chimneys on the housetop. On the center of the housetop, there is a flag. There is also having a big garden of the house. The location of the house is very good. It is on the beach, if you stand behind the window, you can see the sea.

These cliffs are nature cliffs, because human can't make such a huge thing! The cliffs are too high and too long! That is bigger than human million times!
6. I learn a lot in this lesson. I learn where the St. Lawrence River is. I have learned Quebec is a very beautiful place. I have learned Champlain's house that in Quebec is very big and luxury. This shows Champlain have a very comfortable life in Quebec. I also learn Quebec have many cliffs. These cliffs like a nature barrier protect this land.
