00:00:00,110 --> 00:00:11,390
Hello, how are you? I hope that you are fine. I'm going to tell you something about the

2
00:00:11,390 --> 00:00:19,429
Pyrenees and about Ainsa, my mother's village. The Pyrenees is a mountain range which separates

3
00:00:19,429 --> 00:00:28,789
Spain from France. Many of the mountains in the Pyrenees are more than 3,000 meters tall.

4
00:00:28,789 --> 00:00:34,329
The tallest mountains are in Aragón.

5
00:00:34,329 --> 00:00:44,469
The highest peak is Pico de Aneto, which rises 3,404 meters.

6
00:00:44,469 --> 00:00:51,109
Snow covers many of the peaks, especially those in Aragón.

7
00:00:51,109 --> 00:00:59,549
There are also many mountain lakes and some of the highest waterfalls in Europe.

8
00:01:00,130 --> 00:01:06,909
Visitors come to the mountains for summer holidays as well as for winter sports,

9
00:01:07,489 --> 00:01:10,269
trekking, fishing, hiking and biking.

10
00:01:11,950 --> 00:01:15,730
I like biking with my father and my cousin.

11
00:01:15,730 --> 00:01:24,189
Ainsa is a very small village in the Pyrenees in the province of Huesca.

12
00:01:25,069 --> 00:01:31,769
It is my mother's village where my uncles, my cousins and my grandmother live.

13
00:01:32,650 --> 00:01:36,469
I go there every summer and also at Christmas.

14
00:01:37,950 --> 00:01:43,349
Ainsa was a very important village in the Middle Ages.

15
00:01:44,269 --> 00:01:50,329
It has a big square, a castle and an eco-museum of Pyrenean fauna.

16
00:01:51,230 --> 00:01:55,829
There you can learn a lot of things about the Lamer Caller,

17
00:01:56,230 --> 00:02:01,549
quebrantagüesos in Spanish, an endangered bird that lives in the Pyrenees.

18
00:02:02,430 --> 00:02:08,810
In Ainsa there are two rivers, the Zinca River and the Ara River.

19
00:02:08,810 --> 00:02:13,770
In summer we go swimming to the Ara River

20
00:02:13,770 --> 00:02:19,590
We do a lot of trekking near Ainsa

21
00:02:19,590 --> 00:02:22,610
This summer if we can go to Ainsa

22
00:02:22,610 --> 00:02:25,729
I want to climb the Peña Montañesa

23
00:02:25,729 --> 00:02:29,330
I miss you, I hope to see you soon

24
00:02:29,330 --> 00:02:30,270
Bye bye
