BR 2-01: Maisie and The Dolphin

I read Maisie and The Dolphin. Maisie King lives in the Bahama and she likes pop music, reading and swimming. Her mother and father are doctor and they lives in a blue house by the sea. On Saturdays she and her grandad often go out in his boat. Then she swims underwater and looks at all the beautiful fish. One day she found a piece of wood. She swims back to the boat and helped a dolphin that injured. Two weeks later, she took the dolphin back to the sea. And, the dolphin brought a key. It was the key that Maisie found the piece of wood! There were a lot of money and Maisie family build a hospital and Maisie could have the dolphin in her house. They were all happy at last.

There are regularly drinks in all seasons, and the limited drinks or foods are on the shop a monthly or a season. So, you can try any flavor some times in a year. The size of the drinks are generally short (236ml), tall (354ml), grande (473ml) and venti(591ml). Short size in Japan is same of child size in America. American people drink so better than Japanese people, just as I expected.

Do you have a tumbler? I don't have it, but if you have a tumbler, you use in Starbucks please. If you do it, you gave a discount of 20 yen! And moreover it connected with environmental protection!! Starbucks are the place that you can relax same as your home. If you are tired, hungry, want to relax, talk, or spend alone, please go there. You surely want to come again.
