histórias de Ghent

Magellan, Columbus, Clark, Champlain, Cabot, Carmichael. One of these does not go with the others. You are right....Carmichael. Carmichael is the only one of the list of great global adventurers who never grew a beard. The Wanderings is an account of his travels. It details the places he visited, the foreign ladies he courted (or desperately wanted to court but was a bungling fool when it came to the fairer sex), the food he ate, the beverages he drank and the trains he sat on. Read, learn, laugh, smirk....this is his story.

Luke is ten years old when he visits his dying grandmother in the city of Ghent, Belgium. He spends his days playing alone by the stream in her backyard and wishing his parents weren't so busy. He could not imagine that the day his oma passed away would be the most frightening, yet fantastic of his entire life.

Humans Can Lick Too My great-grandmother lived alone up in the mountains at her cabin. Her husband had died, so she was there all alone. She only had one companion, and that was her loving dog. T hey both loved each other very much and the dog loved her and comforted her. Every night when she went to bed, the dog would lick her hand to let her know that he was there to protect her. One night, she had gone to bed and the dog had licked her hand like he had done routinely every night since her husband died. But this night was different. She had woken up in the middle of the night because she heard her dog whimpering. She wanted to comfort him and let her know she was there for him, so she stuck her hand out by the bed and she felt the dog gently lick her hand like always. She figured he was just cold so she went back to sleep.
