Pau Gasol in the All-Star 2016 game in Toronto

To begin, I am going to talk about Pau Gasol. Pau Gasol is a Spanish basketball player, who plays in Chicago Bulls. He is the second Spanish player to play in the NBA. Marc, who is his brother, plays basketball too. Actually, he will be the only white-coloured player.

Regarding Jimmy Butler, we know that he is a 26-years-old Chicago Bulls' player. At the moment, he has a knee injury and Pau will replace him, in the All-Star. The NBA All- Star Game is a basketball exhibition game which is played between the Eastern and the Western Conference. It is the first time that it will be out of USA, in Toronto.

Toronto is the provincial capital of Ontario and the most populous city in Canada. There it is found the Air Canada center, where the Toronto Raptors, the local NBA basketball team, usually plays.

Finally, I think that American players are very good at this sport, although some Spanish are good too, like Rudy Fernández, Ricky Rubio, Juan Carlos Navarro and both Gasol brothers.

Happy St Valentine's Day!

You're so beautiful, you're so fine
I wish so dearly that you would be mine,
Today and always you are in mi heart
So please make me happy be my valentine,
Forever and always, we will never be apart.

  

Beware, travellers: Zika virus, the latest public health emergency

WHAT'S ABOUT ZIKA? 

For a start, talking about Zika, we know that this virus has been strange for us until it appeared on the news. It is caused by a mosquito. Some symptoms are temperature, pink eye and they are of short duration. It concerns specially pregnant women, whose babies can be born with microcephaly. It was started in Brazil last year, but now it has spread around twenty-four countries. The OMS has already declared Zika as a public health emergency.  I have heard that in June will be a vaccine for the virus. And remember, if you are going to travel to somewhere, you should look for further information about this issue.  I got to know about Cyprien two weeks ago, when my French teacher put one of his videos in class. In fact, the best video is about Spain.
