My Summer Vacation
By: Lía Verdeja B.
Finally school was over. No more homework! Except for reading.
But one day after the last day of school, I heard bad news: my family and me are moving! And worse, we have to stay one whole month in Thailand doing nothing! How boring is that? Reading, walking around, and T.V. But my friend Eva Lin was there to play with me for a while.
We made a castle out of card board (which took lots of time!). The castle ended small from outside. But to walk inside, was sort of big.
We played in the pool (example: animal tag, water balloon fight, ect.) we never played Marco Polo or cops and robbers because they were boring in the water.
And we made a massage place that everyone liked. We made a foot massage, a back massage, a hand massage, and a whole body massage with your clothes on.
After all the things we've done together, she had to leave to the USA. NOW I have no one to play with.
CHAPTER 2
I'm going to Bali! No more boring time. I'm going to Bali because of my dad's birthday and we want to go to the beach to have fun!
4hrs later in the airplane… Yes! We're at Bali. We went to a hotel called Alu Bali. 5 minutes away from the beach. So what do we do on the first day??? Simple. We go to the beach! The beach was wonderful. Though it had BIG waves. But the best part of going to the beach was…watching the sunset.
The next day, we went to a water park. The water was very cold but there were many cool slides. I went in a cool slide with my mom. It was called the macaroni tube. It was very fun so I went there over and over again. Then we had to go because it was getting dark. One day I want to go to this water park again.
When I woke up the next morning, my family and me went to a city called Ubud. It took an hour and a half to get there. When we got to Ubud, we started to find rice fields. Some just started to grow and some were being taken out. We also went to a monkey forest. I saw a mother monkey with her baby. It was really cute. Now I'm going back because the sun was going down.
The next day, I went to the beach again. My dad and me made a sand tower competion. The one who makes the tallest tower in 2 minutes is the winner. I won because in the last 3 seconds my dad's tower broke down. Tomorrow I'm leaving in the morning. I had fun in Bali.
CHAPTER 3
Good-bye Thailand and good-bye friends. I'm now moving to Vietnam. That was when I found one good thing about moving. I might see my old friends there.
2 hrs and 5 min. later… I'm in Vietnam! Now that I'm still remembering a little, it's better. We got to an apartment called Indochine. We went to the 16th floor. And in our rooms we have 3 floors. Floor 1: living room, dining room, and kitchen. Floor 2: 3 bedrooms and a bathroom. And last, Floor 3: Balcony. This place is going to be GREAT!!! Well not that great until we go to the beach in Muine.
A few days later, probably the 29th of July, we went to Muine. It took 4 hours to get there. Then we were at Muine happy and carsick. It looked exactly the same. And this time we went to a different hotel called Blue Ocean. We stayed there for 3 days. It was really fun because the waves weren't so big, and the water was normal not cold, and we made cool sand castles.
After 3 days, we came back to the apartment. Me, carsick again and happy.
Now August 8 is my nanny's birthday!!! How awesome is that. So for her birthday present I made a painting saying happy birthday. She was very happy. So we planned that on the 9th of August, we would eat at Al Fresco's. And we did. I ate spaghetti and she ate ribs.
