Describing a Place
I chose Italy as my place. Since it was my first holiday abroad and that I really liked it. It felt like I was in the 7th heaven. I went in the upper part of Italy, in Veneto. On our 1st day, we turned round Treviso, which was the village our hotel was in. While we were walking, we saw a huge old castle, which was surrounded by a lake with cute ducks, quacking all day long. You can also admire, like we did, the stunning view of all the lakes, like Lake Garda, every time you turn your head. We visited Saint Anthony’s Basilica. It’s a really huge church in Padua, not all of it, in fact, fitted in the camera’s screen! The thing is that you can’t take your camera and video camera in with you. Opposite the basilica, we relaxed near the fountain in the square. There was a statue every 5 metres and we took a photo with every one of them! We went to every park we saw and one of them had a lake near it, and a lot of people were fishing. One of the fishermen, which was very cool (according to my older brother), was fishing with 3 fishing poles at once! I went to a zoo in Bibione, and there was a large range of animals that you can see, including seals, lions, hippos and lots of goats! We went to the open market, where we bought 10 bracelets, 6 necklaces, a pair of shoes, earrings and 3 tops. When we went to Venice, all we bought was masks, masks, and a glass elephant for my brother, masks and more masks. My mother is a really big follower of St. Anthony; in fact she bought about 7 statues, 5 key chains and 2 magnets. During our stay in Treviso, there was a week full of plans and activities, like car shows and stuff. We went to see a film in 4D at the cinema. We also went to see a play in an old hall. We went to Luna parks where we went on roller coasters and slides and we ate caramel apples, which were rather delicious. My family and I really loved this wonderful experience. I would highly recommend visiting the dolomites if you’re a nature lover. We

    The best trip I have ever went on was when my family and I went to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. My aunt was getting married and my mom’s side of the family was invited to come. We got to go on this vacation last February. We left very early one morning and we went to the airport. It was very cold and the air was very dry. We got to the airport in Sioux Falls and we went through security and waited to get on the plane. Once we finally got on the plane I was very excited to get there. We had a connection in Minneapolis and we had a direct flight from Minneapolis all the way to Punta Cana. Once we finally got to Punta Cana, we were getting off the plane and I could feel the humid, warm air. We had to wait in a very long line to go through customs. After that, we got on a taxi that took us to our resort. The roads in the Dominican Republic are not much different from the roads in the U.S. They still had stop lights, billboards, and the same traffic rules. One big difference we saw on the way to the…

    The Dominican Republic was a vacation I will never forget because all the beautiful things that stood out there. Some of the stuff that was very cool about that place was how everyone there was kind-hearted and how they were all so happy no matter what. The people who went on this trip for eight nights and nine days were; my mom, my twin brother, and my aunt. We all knew it was going to be a different experience from all the other vacations that we have ever taken. It was a weary decision to go to the Dominican because Haiti is on the other side of that Island. Haiti is where the that horrible Hurricane happened and that happened a couple years ago (they are still cleaning up til this day). Its hard to go some where on vacation knowing that we were on the other side of Haiti, but we couldn’t help them because the resort said it was still pretty unsafe to go over on that side of the Island.…

    Secondly, I love traveling to other countries. I love visiting new places because I can experience different cultures and meet different people who I wouldn't normally get to meet. When I go abroad, I really get the feeling that I'm living in a big world and that all my worries are so small and pointless. It would be great to go to a country I have never been to before. I've heard from many people who've been to Europe that Barcelona was the best place they'd ever visited. Barcelona is a city that has beautiful beaches and is known for having sunny and clear weather, so if I had a chance of going to any country I wanted to, I'd choose Barcelona as my ideal vacation location.…

    It was the best weekend at AUBG. My parents came to see me! They, along with my sister vacationed on the coast of Greece. For a week they were sunbathing on the beach by the sea, and then came to Bulgaria by car, which they took on a rental. On Friday after school they came after me in Blagoevgrad, and we went to Varna. Way to Varna was about seven hours, and all the while I was talking about my life in Bulgaria. We arrived at the hotel late at night and immediately went to bed. The next day we planned to lie on the beach and take a walk around the city, but the weather has made adjustments: there was no sun in the sky, and the breeze was blowing nasty. However, despite this, we walked along the beach and made a bunch of photos. After that, we went to the center of the city and looked at a lot of places of interest. Varna has a lot of attractions, it is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Bulgaria. In the evening we went to the dolphinarium, where we watched a wonderful show. The day ended with a family dinner at a restaurant.…
