Personal memory by Daelyn Locklar
2011 CE • Bahrain
"Growing up I always moved with my family because my dad was in the United States Navy. Around the end of middle school we moved to the Kingdom of Bahrain, it was there I saw people making expansions to the island. The water was so pretty, but with people making their own expansions, it hurt the aquatic life and polluted the water."
