Brooke is a quadriplegic— she can't move her arms or legs. She spends all her time in a wheelchair, and she can’t breathe without a special machine. A terrible accident at the age of 11 changed her life— she was hit by a car on her way home from school, But she stays active every day. On a typical morning, it takes most people about a half hour to get up, get dressed, and have breakfast. For Brooke, it usually takes about four hours. Her mother, Jean, wakes her early in the morning and exercises her arms and legs. Then she gives her a bath, combs her hair, and brushes her teeth. After that, she dresses her and lifts her into her wheelchair. By late morning, Brooke is ready for breakfast.

Holland Holland has a northern climate, so depending on the time of year youre visiting, pack lighter or heavier clothes. One thing people notice about Holland is the way young people dress. Their dress code is “anything goes,” so it’s not unusual to see some pretty wild clothes there! Thailand if you're visiting beautiful Thailand from May to September, pack for the heat. Thailand is generally conservative when it comes to clothing, but at Thailand's magnificent temples, the rules about clothing, and especially shoes, are very strict. If your shoes are too open, they are considered disrespectful, and you will have to change to more modest ones. So be prepared with light but modest clothing and shoes for your Thailand trip. maprare-engeremencitesaa aaa sail a Thai temple E t eine is hot in Egypt, so pack light clothing. But be sure to bring warm-weather clothing that is also modest. If you visit a mosque, shoris are definitely out of the question, for both men and women. In mosques, women should wear longer skirts and a head covering, usually a scart. And the upper part of their arms should be covered with sleeves. For touring other wonderful sights and historical places, casual, comfortable clothing is fine for both men and women. aan ints SOURCE: Rough Guide and Berlitz travel guides» DISCUSSION.
