My grandfather Jack is 96 years old, and he has had an interesting life. He has traveled a lot in his life in the Far East. He visited the Taj Mahal（泰姬陵） in India and the Pyramids in Egypt. He hunted lions in Africa, and rode a camel in the Sahara Desert（撒哈拉沙漠）. He says the most beautiful place he has traveled to is Kathmandu in Nepal（尼泊尔）.
Jack has married twice. His first wife died when she was 32. He met his second wife Maria while he was cycling round France. They have been married for 50 years, and they have lived happily in a small village since they got married.
