My Holiday in Vancouver
My summer holidays are often a little
boring, but my summer holiday last
year was great – my family and I got
onto an airplane and flew to
Vancouver! It was our first time to
visit Canada. We got up very early
almost every day and did lots of really
fun and interesting things. On our first
day, we visited Stanley Park and the
Vancouver Art Gallery. Later in the
week, we visited some museums and
then got on a special boat to watch
whales. It was fantastic! I took lots of photos. Of course, we also visited
our cousins who live in Vancouver. One evening, they had a barbeque
and we ate at their home. After we finished our food, we invited them to
come to our home one day. Unfortunately, we didn’t swim in the ocean
because the water was too cold, but we did do many other fun things.
Finally, after two weeks, before we left Vancouver, my family and I went
shopping and bought lots of souvenirs to help us remember our time in
Canada. Maybe we can travel again during my next summer holiday.
Maybe we can make plans to visit Japan or Brazil!
