Nordlingen, Germany


Located in Bavaria Germany, the walled city of Nordlingen is completely round, built inside a huge, round meteorite crater. Built in 898, this beautiful town is known for its red-roofed homes and Gothic churches and features an impressive tower that was built from the rock that was formed during the meteorite impact.

The crater is thought to have formed some 14.5 million years ago, reports The BBC.

Islands of the Uros, Peru


The Uros people of Peru live on floating islands that they have crafted from havrves reed, which grows along the edges of Lake Titicaca, Puno, and bundled together to create floating island platforms. Each island includes several simple, reed houses ( the biggests islands house about 10 families) and the largest island has watchtower, reports Atlas Obscura.

These floating villages, called "totora" were first built around the 13th century to escape Incas attacks, according to The BBC, since the island villages could be moved on the water like a raft to escape danger.

Cappadocia, Turkey



Deep in the heart of Turkey, in the semi-arid region of Cappadocia, sedimentary rock formations that have been eroded by rain and waterinto unique and beautiful shapes. Starting in the fourth century A.D., according to National Geographic, people began carving into these peculiar-shaped rock formations and they created an extensive network of cave-like houses, churches, tunnels and monasteries known as the fairy chimneys of Goreme.

These buildings came to serve as a refuge for early Christians, protecting them from Roman Empire persecution and Arab invations.

Some of these ancient homes are still inhabited today, while others have been converted into museums and hotels.

Troo, France


Troo is renowned for being one of the best preserved cave villages in France. Its cave-houses date back to the 11th and 12th century and are called "caforts." They have been built into the slopes of a steep hill, located along the Rue Haute (High Street).

Coober Pedy, Australia


Located in the harsh Outback of South Australia, the remote town of Coober Pedy was founded in 1915 to mine opals. The extreme heat of this desert region, however, forced the inhabitants to take extreme measures to continue surviving in the region.


Having just returned from World War I, soldiers implemented a new way of living by digging underground dwellings, or "dugouts" to escape the high temperatures, similar to the trench tunnels they had dug in France, writes the town's official website. Today, the towns 2000 residents live in the underground tunnel town, which holds of about 1,500 houses,

Around the world, villages have been built in some unique places, from cliffs to caves, because their founders could use the shape of landscape to their advantage. Here we take a look at how nature has shaped some unbelievable towns, starting with a town built under a rock.

Setenil de la Bodegas, Spain



Setenil de las Bodegas is a town in the province of Cádiz, Spain, famous for its dwellings built into rock overhangs above the Rio Trejo. According to the 2005 census, the city has a population of 3,016 inhabitants. Though the population have reduced.



The Spanish town of Setenil de las Bodegas was built into and under the rock walls of a narrow river gorge that was eroded by the Rio Trejo river. Because of the rocky overhang, in some areas of the town, it actually looks like the rock is falling onto the buildings themselves. It is believed that the town has been inhabited since pre-historic times and that the cave-like houses were built for practical reasons: the natural caves could be easily converted into houses by just adding an external wall.

CONTINUATION....




===============================

MONDAY AFTERNOON: POLICE STATION......





Seargent Okoro paced to and fro his office. He smooched his beard and made constant touch with his beret, lifting it up, rubbing his hair, and replacing it beret back.


An officer he summoned knocked and rushed in, he stopped as he saw his boss, then tried excusing himself....


"Come back here, jusssst come back here!!" He fired at Constable Nwakali.


"Yessir!!" The Constable rushed back in and saluted, his eyes on the portrait behind his boss.

"Constable Nwakali, where the hell is Corp Okoro? Why is this station looking empty? You had better start talking!" The hot glance made the constable melt and he stammered before he could reply audibly enough.


"Sir they went for a short break sir. They left in two batches. One went for patrol....."


"Sharrap!! Where is Corp Okoro i asked?"


"With the patrol team sir. They told me to deliver this to you." He placed a file at his boss' desk, and resumed his alert posture.


"What report is this? Is this their findings on the kidnappers?" He calmed down and glanced through the report. His face expressing dissatisfaction still while he was looked through the file.



"Is this all their findings?"


"Yessir! All sir"


"Interesting! Tell them to meet me here as soon as they arrive."


"Yessir!" the Constable saluted, turned and exited the office like a robot.



------------------------------------------------


Bolu arrived just in time to see his father placing his only luggage into the car. He rushed in to prepare and was soon set to leave. He felt his pocket for a piece of paper and searched frantically for it until he saw it.


The few minutes the paper got lost sparked nervousness in him. He sketched Elizabeth smile as he left the room. Then he remembered Wura, then his best friend, Courtney.


"Bolu, come over!" His mum called.


"Lets get moving." Mr Ola ordered and after a short prayer, they went down the stairs. He turned and gave his mum an affectionate hug and whispered into her ear.


"Louis scored twice!! See you later mum." He was in the car before she could ask further. She smiled and waved at him, Aunty Bose likewise. Mr Ola gave a 'see you later' hint with his car-horn and soon the journey began.


"What did he say last? Bose asked


"Its Louis! You'l find out later." and she walked back up to see her home in a different light. This would be the first time since she left that she had the house entirely to her.


The peaceful atmosphere, the angle of the sun, and power supply. She felt remorseful and settled with the televison to enjoy freedom. Though someone needed it more than she-Sam!!




-----------------------------------------------



The Girls' game ended in an ephatic but displeasing fashion. 7-5 it ended. Another two goal margin between both schools.


Elizabeth tried her best as the goalkeeper and had to come off her life severally, which didnt augur well with her coach.


'Bunching' was the process whereby all players ran after the ball and followed it without no conscious respect for tactics than to converged at a spot.


Despite the improvement they showed a few days ago, the pressure was too much to handle, and soon they played like amateurs. There was actually a different- the goal came in en masse with shouts and screams of support from both teams.

Hoewever, Triple C came out winners. Elizabeth probably angered by her performance, walked off and isolated herself. A few guys rallied about her to encourage her, but she knew it was a bad game and little consolation couldnt change that fact.


"You tried now! Your defenders werent anywhere near you." Louis analyzed.


"well tell that to them. Despite the coach's training....." and she ranted off still


"its okay, we won. You've almost forgotten i score two today."

"oh yeah! That makes me fell bad too, so let it pass still. You are a player 'headmaster'!" she livened up soon enough after refreshing with chilled yorghurt.




The boys' game took a rough turn, with the Soundhope boys wanting to wrestle a win before the day was over. The game became physical and a few disgruntled players used cunniness to get justified.


Despite the two goals scored by SH, they still played the same pattern. They werent ready to relax just yet.



Tired and worn, they gradually let off steam and soon the parity was restored with two well calculated shots-one from Gbenga and another from Kingsley. They walked off the field after the referee ended the match. The spoils shared equally. There was however a big different in the mood of both teams.


Triple C's boys composed a song on the spot as both teams made to leave.


Okocha dey our team

Taribo dey our team

if Ronaldo dey your team

Show us hin jersey number.


Mr Pius smiled as the school bus headed back to the school. He liked everybit of it. Mr Lambert did not.


Song: Drake ft M. Jordan- Hold On, We're going home.

KillerBeauty: Its supposed to be parents but there is a 50 percent possibility that the parents would not teach the child. That where the school comes in to play their part. If school fails peer group will never fail.
from worse to worst( d peer group will definitely be made up of kids in the same kinda shoes-ignorant as well/faint/sketchy idea about it) which in turn turns sour.

Parents need to step up. It also boils down to if these 'parents' were also taught by their 'parents' which translates to the confidence in passing down a similar pattern.( an expert in bed may be clueless when explaining it to a child) its really bad!
