Netball Practice

During the holidays, I went for a netball holiday programme.

I went to school to play netball for two days.

It was so fun!

My friends were there too!

One time, the ball hit my head!

Ouch!

I hope there are more holiday programmes like this in the future!

My Holidays(5)

One of the days we went to Paris for one night.

That was when the trouble began.

Paris was in France and so they spoke french.

When we took the train, they had some announcements in french and we did not understand.

My mother asked the information counter for help.

Luckily, the the man at the information counter knew a bit of English.

He told my mother that the train would not be coming.

My mother came back to tell us the information.

While we were discussing how we should go there, the train came.

We quickly got up and went in.

phew!

We then visited some old buildings and churches in other parts of England.

From each place to each place, it took at least one hour!

In Singapore, the longest time to drive from one place to another is only about forty five
minutes.

Then we visited some places like the Big Ben, The London Eye, Tower Bridge, Buckingham Palace.

The Big Ben was really very big and golden.

And I was very lucky to hear it chime.

The London Eye was very big too!

We crossed the Tower Bridge and when we got to the other side, it open!

When we went to Buckingham Palace, we saw the change of guards.

We were very, very lucky.

Our next destination is...

My auntie's house of course!

Her house had two levels and it is in Norfolk.

She let my family sleep in the master bedroom because our family had the most number of people.

My grandparents slept in the second bedroom, whilst my aunt and uncle slept in a store room.

Finally, the day came.

I sat in the taxi and my heart was pounding as we headed for the airport.

It was the very first time I was sitting on an aeroplane.

My father said that I am very lucky because My first aeroplane trip was fourteen hours.

I felt a little giddy.

My sister and I were each given a goody bag.

After the plane landed, we were even more excited!

We met my auntie and uncle at Heathrow Airport.

When we stepped out of the airport, the air was so cold!

We could see smoke coming out of our mouths!

We then had a two hour ride in their car to our next destination.
