  2. Nice job Ana! I like how your post was very colorful, but i suggest you should have used darker colors because sometimes light colors are hard to read. I also wish you could have made your pictures bigger so we don't have to click on the picture to enlarge it. I suggest you should have put a link and/or video. Well, good job for doing your best! (:
