Dear Mom, guess where I am writing this letter - I am sitting on the edge of the Grand Canyon! We leave Santa Fe two nights ago and arrive here early yesterday morning. And let me tell you, the Grand Canyon is really GRAND! I have already taken a lot of photos so that you can see them, and soon I will take a few more, but in fact, Mom, you won’t believe how great it is! It extends 277 miles from end to end — at a depth of a mile, and in some places — at a mile — and there are so many incredible colors in the rock! Blues, reds, violets, oranges, greens, yellows, and so on. There is a funny story about how the Spaniards first discovered the canyon. When the Spanish explorer first came here in 1540, he sent two of his men to the canyon for research. He told them: "Go there and quickly inspect." Quick look around! No wonder they will never return. They just die there, as long as they have a "look around." You see, the Spaniards never imagined even something so big, so they cannot guess its real size. In any case, we are probably going to spend several days here, but we have not yet decided what we will do after this. See you in a couple of weeks. Love, Mike.
My favourite football player is Igor Akinfeev. Igor Akinfeev was born on April 8, 1986 in the city of Vidnyi, Moscow region. Since childhood, the boy loved football. At the age of four, mum and dad started taking him to his first training sessions. When he was seven years old, the boy was sent to the Youth CSKA. Igor immediately determined his football vocation and stood at the gate. At school Akinfeev regularly played for older teams. At the age of 16, the young goalkeeper graduated from the Moscow CSKA football Academy, and he was immediately invited to the CSKA football team. Goalkeeper and captain of CSKA, he was the main goalkeeper of the Russian national team for many years. In 2005, he was awarded the title of Honored master of sports of Russia. In 2006, he was awarded the Order of Friendship. He is married and has two children. After the home world Cup Igor Akinfeev made a decision to finish his career in the national team of Russia, to which he devoted 14 years of sports life.
