Joanne Usher from Mississippi, is a big favourite with her two grandsons because she lives on a jet plane. Her home is a Boeing 727, so a visit to grandma is very special.
Joanne’s front door is at the top of the plane’s steps, but you don’t need a ticket or a passport when you visit. There are three bedrooms, a living room, a modern kitchen and a luxury bathroom. The bathroom is in the cockpit, with the bath under the windows. Next to this is Joanne’s bedroom in the first class section of the plane. Then there’s the living room with four emergency exit doors, which she opens on summer evenings. On the wall there’s a photo of the plane flying for American Airlines from Florida to the Caribbean
“it’s the best home in the world,” says Joanne. “It has all things you want in a home:. It’s always very warm, even in winter, and it’s very big, 42 metres long. My grandchildren love running up and down. And my friends love parties here, but there aren’t any flight attendants to serve them their drinks!”
The plane cost Joanne just $4,000. “Next time,” she says, “I want a Boeing 747, because they have an upstairs and a downstairs, and I want to go upstairs to bed!”

В Лондоне есть множество незабываемых туристических достопримечательностей, одна из них - "Лондонский Глаз". Это огромное колесо обозрения, расположенное на Южном Берегу реки Темзы. Также известный как "Колесо Тысячелетия", "Лондонский Глаз" был самым большим колесом обозрения в мире до 2006, но даже после этого он остается самым большим в Европе. Поездку на таком высоком колесе называют полетом. Строительство колеса закончилось в 1999, но оно оставалось закрытым до 2000 года. Когда оно открылось для общественности, многие люди наконец смогли насладиться красивым видом на Темзу.
