MOONFLEET ACTIVITY
I have chosen this picture because it reminds me the ship in page 97 (chapter 9).
This is one of my favourite parts in the story because John survives surprisingly; but Elzevir don't. This is also one of the saddest parts in the story because John realizes that Elzevir died when he wakes up in the floor of the Why Not Inn because Ratsey tolds him.

This picture is related with the Chapter 7:The well, reminds me when John goes down the well that was in Carisbrooke Castle to find the cursed diamond of  Mohune John.

This well is full of passages and doors, remind us a labyrinth.

In this part of the story, John went down 80 feet in depth to find the diamond, which was hidden behind a rock with a big Y engraved on it.

This photo represents John reading the paper that was inside the locket of Blackbeard Mohune while Ezelvir was outside looking for a ship to France. reading this paper John discovered the Blackbeard's secret... WHERE THE DIAMOND WAS HIDE!!!!!

I've choose this photo because I love mistery and I think John is a very intelligent person.

Moonfleet picture

Curchyard of Moonfleet.

In this picture we can see a lot of old tombstones. I think is in a curchyard or a cemetery that is looking at a village.

This picture represents chapter two, when John is siting in the curchyard on a stone looking at the sea, he saw there were a lot of cracks because of the floods and bad weather of November. 
He notice that one crack got bigger and looked down, he saw that it was like a small hole. 
He was very excited when he saw something under the tomb!

MOONFLEET´S ACTIVITY

In this picture we can see the diamond dealer, called Aldobran, that John and Elzevir chose to sell their diamond. Most of the people thought that this diamond dealer was the best but when he sees the diamond he says it´s only a piece of glass and that he could only pay 10 pounds for it.Then elzevir gets very angry because he had done a very big effort to find it and now he would only get 10 pounds for it so he threw the diamond through the window. Then John tells Elzebir that he saw in the face of Aldobran that he was lying and the diamond was very expensive. When John and Elzevir went back to the dealer´s house to recover the diamond Aldroban had already taken it. When Aldroban saw John and Elzevir he called the security and Elzevir fought bravely but then they lose the diamond.At the end when Aldroban dies the diamond goes to John and he use it to help the poor.

This happens in chapter 8.I´ve chosen this picture because I really care about the avarice of the world .

I´ve found this great image while I was surfing the net i i thought that would be great for this chapter.

As you can see, the first image is related whith the chapter 9 of Moonfleet, A storm at sea, when Jonh Trenchard scape to Moonfleet.

In the picture you can see a great ship, called schooner, from 1500 more or less,in the middle of a brave storm in the Atlantic Ocean, when explorers travel from Europe to America. 

The second one, is more recently, from 2000 maybe, and is a fishing ship, also in the middle of a storm in the Pacific Ocean, whith this HUGE WAVES.

1.A SCHOONER AT THE BRAVE, STORMY SEA.

MOONFLEET PICTURE

I have choosen this picture with a well that there is a person inside because it reminds me the part of the story where John was inside the well looking for the diamond. He went down more and he found a bag. John opened the bag and inside there was the diamond. I like this part of the story because in my grandfather´s house there is a well and when my brother and me go to the village we like to take water from the well.
