Last weekend, Sarah and her friends went on a hiking trip. They started their journey
early on Saturday morning. The weather was beautiful, so they decided to hike up
the mountain. As they were walking, they saw many interesting plants and animals.
Sarah took lots of photos with her camera. Suddenly, it started raining heavily, so
they had to find shelter under a big tree. While they were waiting for the rain to stop,
they played games and told stories. After the rain stopped, they continued their hike
and reached the top of the mountain. From there, they enjoyed a breathtaking view
of the landscape below. They stayed there until sunset, taking in the beauty of
nature. Finally, they descended the mountain carefully and returned home late in the
evening.
