Create a memory book of the best moments of your summer vacation.
Answers
Answer:
My idea of an ideal summer vacation was always this: Travelling to exotic places, indulging in adventure sports and losing yourself in the lap of nature. I was wrong. My best vacation was living with my grandma in Nagpur, which seemed more of a punishment at first. Little did I know that I was about to discover a little “secret” about life itself. Grandma made me believe that I am the master of my fate and captain of my soul. I found the purpose of life is not to do good deeds and go to heaven, but to find heaven on earth itself. I realised the ‘best’ vacation is anywhere the heart is happy and mind is at peace. Now, I am living the best vacation ever.
When I sit near the window and remember those days, a big smile comes on my face. It was 7 pm when my parents called me and my elder sister to their room and told us that the next day, we were going to Kasauli. I was so excited that I started jumping here and there and I started speaking aloud to my parents that I’ll take this dress with me and those shoes and other stuff. Finally, the clock struck 8 when we all were ready. We began our journey, my one-year-old brother’s first trip with us. The car journey was too long, but I really had fun talking to my parents, playing with my elder sister, eating McDonald’s burgers with my brother and having fun along with reading books. When we reached Kasauli, the scene was beautiful. The blue sky, huge mountains, the sound of birds chirping and, of course, the pleasant climate made my day. After a lot of travelling, we rested at the resort for an hour or so and then we went to the resort’s terrace. Well, the weather was a bit cold at night and, on the terrace, a musical band was singing melodious songs. After dinner, we went to bed. The morning when I woke up, the beautiful sun caught my attention, making my morning special. We all had breakfast and went for sightseeing. We had a lot of fun and it felt great to be there. I felt as if I was in heaven. The third day, we returned home and, on our way back, I really missed the time spent at Kasauli. My favorite summer vacation memory will always be my visit to Kasauli.
Answer:
My dream summer vacation always included visiting far-off locales, partaking in extreme activities, and becoming lost in the beauty of nature. I was mistaken. Living with my grandmother in Nagpur, which first looked more like a punishment, was the highlight of my trip. I had no idea that I would soon learn a small "secret" about life itself. Grandma instilled in me the notion that I am in charge of my destiny and the captain of my soul. I discovered that the goal of life is to discover heaven on earth, not to perform good actions and get entrance to heaven. I came to understand that the "greatest" vacation is one spent somewhere where the heart and mind are content.
A broad smile spreads over my face as I sit close to the window and think back on those times. My parents called my older sister and me to their room at around 7 o'clock and informed us that we would be traveling to Kasauli the next day. I was so pleased that I began to hop around and began telling my parents out loud that I would be taking this dress, those shoes, and other belongings with me. When we were all prepared, the time finally reached eight. My one-year-old brother joined us for the first time as we set off on our voyage. Even though the vehicle ride was too lengthy, I truly enjoyed spending time with my family, playing with my older sister, eating McDonald's burgers with my brother, and chatting to my parents. I also enjoyed reading books. We arrived at Kasauli to a breathtaking landscape. My day was made by the clear skies, massive mountains, the sound of birds chirping, and, of course, the wonderful weather. After a long day of travel, we had a break at the resort for about an hour before heading to the terrace. A musical group was performing on the patio when it was a little chilly outside at night. We retired to bed following dinner. When I woke up that morning, the lovely sun captured my eye, making my morning unique. After breakfast, the group of us went sightseeing. We had a lovely day, and being there felt wonderful. I had a heavenly sensation. On the third day, while we were on our way home, I was already missing Kasauli. My trip to Kasauli will always be my favorite summertime memory.
