A trip to google
On Monday, our class went to google for our english unit. After we arrived at google, Mr. van Winkel took us to a conference room and talked about the difference sides of google. He explained that google was supposed to be named Googol, which is 1 with 100 zero's behind. Through a typo the company was named google. When the presentation ended our class split up into three groups and got a tour around google. The interior of the offices are mostly white with some colours. Therefor to create a fun enviroment for the workers, google created different rooms in shich people can relax or eat or take a break from sitting at their desk. Also, they hve little eggs, where one can sit in and have privat phone call if wanted.
I was surprised to find out that all data centers for google can be found on google maps. I thought, that they would try to keep them as secret as possible, so that they won't get hacked into. Also it was very interesting to learn how google got founded. One question which istill have is how the "I'm feeling lucky" button works. Something which didn't surprise me is the impact google has on the internet. Overall it was a great experience to be able to go to google.

I like how in the summary you gave us a fact about why google is called google. I asked them about the Im lucky button and their reply was, the most visited website for your search will come up. I liked your use of transitions because they were smooth and did not seem forced.
