The old mans 48 days of no fish has ended. This section shows the out look and philosophy the old man has on fishing. He’s gone almost two days fighting this fish with no food and little water. It shows that he is a true fisherman because hardly anyone would fight for 6 hours and he has gone on for over 12 hours.
His choice had been to stay in the deep dark water far out beyond all snares and traps and treacheries. My choice was to go there to find him beyond all people. Beyond all people in the world. Now we are joined together and been since noon. And no one to help either one of us.
This passage tells the values of the old man, in how he would have the fight no other way and that he goes too any length to do what has to be done. He tells how there is a connection of why the fish is out in the deep ocean and not by shore. He is not one to follow the crowd, he takes chances.

Within the beginning of the Old Man and the Sea it shows an old man that has had a very hard life and isn’t getting any better. There is a young boy that helps the old man with his chores and get through every day, the boy loves the old man as if he was his grandfather and seems like he would do anything for him. It describes every detail of the old man so you can get a mental image of him.
The old man knew he was going out far and he left the smell of land behind….
This was my favorite quote because he knows what he is doing and yet it seems to me that he may no come back or not want to. He may just want to go out and catch his last fish for his own satisfaction. He knows he has to come back for the boy though.

It’s a vivid description of the experience and the environment of
Cappadocia, Turkey, it described ass another worldly place and the layout of the cave and how the people lived. The lunar of Cappadocia is home to a bizarre filed of anthill-like cones that resembles some lunar landscape, rock-hewn churches and underground cities where Christians once hid to avoid persecution. You can see having breakfast on the tranquil terrace where, every morning, freshly baked focaccia was served with bowls of cherries, apricots, yogurt, cheeses, tomatoes, cured ham and muesli.

Blogs are good way for people to express them selves and share information with others. I enjoy reading others blogs but I’m not the best blog righter. I enjoy using computers but computers don’t like as well. My uses for computers are school work and the internet. I understand how some parents are worried about there kid’s safety on the internet. Say they are spending hours on the internet in chat rooms with people they don’t know, but if they on the internet looking on the internet for school or for there own interests. I don’t know if the internet I dangers if your being smart. The only thing you really have to worry about is getting a virus on our computer. I’m used to using a blog from last year but I still need to work on my creative writing skills. I like writing but there are many other things I’d like to do to tell the truth.
