  20. Howdy my name Tane

    There are many types of technology that we use in our everyday lives. Sometimes we walk short distances but you need to have water and supplies or you will get dehydrated. You must also have good weather as it might be too cold or too hot so make sure you have good weather.

    The good things are that you go a long way in a car but you have to fill it up that costs a lot to run. Using cars is essential when you do your shopping.

    Flying is the most expensive to run and it pollutes the air that we breath which is bad for our body. Flying is good to get to other countries and for going long distances. We should have a vacation once in a while. Howdy,
