Kelly's Post

Hawaii
By: Kelly

My family goes to Hawaii for two weeks every summer and have fun doing a lot of different things. First, we go to Kailua beach in Oahu almost every day. At the beach we build sand castles, make sand sculptures, go boogie boarding and surfing, go canoeing, and visit tide pools. All seven cousins from my mom's side of the family come so we have lots of people to play with. Carolyn and our cousin Finn watch the annual hot dog eating contest while me and two of my cousins go into the backyard of the house that my grand parents own to go lizard catching. In Hawaii we celebrate many summer birthdays including my little sister's. We also celebrate the Fourth of July by going to the beach and seeing really cool fireworks that I only see once a year. Do you go somewhere with your family every year? If not, where would you like to go?

I go to Taiwan, but I don't go every year. My dad and mom says that if we get enough money, and it is the right time to go, such as on a break, then we go to Taiwan.

I go to Hawaii, too, every year with my family and at Hawaii, we meet with our grandparents, uncles, and aunts. Then we usually go on a cruise that takes us to each major island. At every island, we go to the beach there. I really like going to Hawaii every year with my whole family.

I go to Taiwan every year in December. Everytime I go there I really enjoy it. We go to nightmarkets,shimen, underground shopping districts, and almost every day go somewhere.

I go to Taiwan every summer, but if there is a special event like our Nepal and India trip, we don't go. Taiwan has many amazing things. I mainly visit Taipei and Taichung, because most of my relatives gather there. There is underground- malls(di- shia- jie), night markets, and places to visit. My cousins: Katherine, Jonathan, Sandy, Kevin, and I, like to go to nightmarkets(yieh- shi)by ourselves!!! Our parents give us Taiwan money to buy things like pearldrink, milkshake, icecream, and most of all, sweat-steak bars. We wander free, buy whatever we want, and hang-out. To bad we only have it once a year.

I sometimes go to India if we are not planning on another trip. Otherwise I might go somewhere like Mexico, Hawaii, Rome, Egypt, Greece, or some other place that we feel like going to for vacation. It has been two years since I've been to India, because we're trying to hit all the wonders of the world too.

Yes, I go to Reno(Nevada)each year. Well we at least go there ten times a year.

I go to India, but not every year. We only go there in the Summer Break. We meet our grandparents, uncles, and aunts. We usually go to the zoo and snake park over there. Going to India is really fun.

I go places, but I never have went to same place every year. I would like to go to Hawaii though. When I was in 2nd grade I wanted to go to Hawaii. My mom always said when Andrew is bigger. Now he is five and we still haven't been able to go. I wish I could go there someday!

I either go to Tawain to see my grandparents or my grandparents visit me. Going to Tawain is really hot, though.
