Round the World in Eighty Days

I read a novel "Round the World in Eighty Days". It is written by Jules Verne. It said a gentleman named Phileas Fogg who lived in London was a disciplined man. One day he read a news that said people could go round the world in eighty days in 19th century. Fogg believed that he could do it , but his friends didn't think so. So they betted Fogg twenty thousand pounds. Even though Fogg encountered many difficulties, such as the bad weather, the uncompleted structure railway and a detective who thought that he was a bank robber. He still went back to London on time and won his bet, and because he saved a beautiful girl in India, he won a pretty wife as well. Fogg is a brave, friendly and lucky man, so he had a happy life. I wish I can travel round the world in the future. Of cause it needs good luck, enough money and time.
