My name is Nam. I'll tell you about one of my most impressive trips that
my classmates and I have just made after finishing the second term. It was a
visit to the Botanical Garden in our city. It was a cool Sunday. We
assembled at the school gate and caught a bus to the Botanical Garden. It
was a long way to our destination and we sang very merrily all the way. The
Botanical Garden is a very beautiful place. We made a short tour round the
garden and took some photos of the whole class. Then we played a lot of
games on the grassland. One of the boys brought the guitar and we sang our
favorite songs. We laughed, talked and danced, too. After the meal, we all
took a rest. In the afternoon, we went on playing some more games. Then we
went home at four thirty. We all felt very happy.
