Israels national food is Falafel. In Israel they play soccer, basketball and football. In Israel they have  both Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. I love this country because it is the home of Jews and I am Jewish. I also love Israel because my ancestors came from there.

Ukraine is a country in eastern Europe. It's official language is Ukrainian. Ukraine's population is 41,588,354, and and it's capital city is Kyiv. One of the dishes that Ukraine is most known for is Borscht. It's most popular sport is Football (Soccer). Ukraine has Girl Guides, and they joined W.a.g.g.g.s. in 1995. Something that I love about Ukraine is that they are very rich in musical arts. It has many theaters and dance clubs in their cities, and there are folk dancers performing on their streets.  ]]> 2021-04-24 16:32:12 UTC https://padlet.com/janinebrowngs/xtjwfwyowskdik9c/wish/1454860396 Japan https://padlet.com/janinebrowngs/xtjwfwyowskdik9c/wish/1456368645 By Bonnie Wright

Japan's Girl Scout club was established in 1919 and became a member of W.A.G.G.G.S. in 1952 with over 33,000 members to date.  The thing I like most about Japan is their unique buildings and homes.]]> 2021-04-25 14:37:55 UTC https://padlet.com/janinebrowngs/xtjwfwyowskdik9c/wish/1456368645 Colombia https://padlet.com/janinebrowngs/xtjwfwyowskdik9c/wish/1456401023 Colombia is a country located in the northern part of South America.
