Class 4, Assignment 8


This place is called PSOAS Domus Botnica. There are white buildings surrounded by trees and green grass. The lake is surrounding the buildings. The buildings are very high and there seems to be nothing else.


This place is called the New Beginning. There are three girls playing ball. Also, there is a wooden stage with a piano on the corner. This place seems to be an island, as it is surrounded by water and a lighthouse is present, connected with the island through a wooden bridge. There is a black, odd statue as well.


This place is called the Haukipudas Cloud Church. There are two rows of long wooden chair in the center. The inside is surrounded by walls with old evangelical paintings. Also, there is an organ at the back and a stage on the front.
