Dear Diary:
I am just back home after spending an exhilarating and fun-filled summer vacation. I had great fun at my grandparents' place during my vacation. I was dying to go to my grandparents’ village in Himachal Pradesh. It is a sylvan spot of Elysian beauty.
The rustic villa is on the top of the hill. The temperature is pleasantly cool. All around are terraced fields where pure natural vegetables grow. Beyond the fields are natural forests. The source of water is a stream. Every morning I went to the stream to fetch pure water for drinking and cooking. I had my bath in the stream every day!
My granny cooked the most scrumptious dishes for me as long as I stayed there. I also assisted my granny in the fields and in handling the cows. I just loved to be in that heavenly hamlet. Well the happy times are about to be over! The school is going to reopen on July 5, 2019. That’s it dear diary. Bye.

Dear Diary
Vacations are meant to be enjoyed and to explore new stuff and hobbies. Summer vacation offers everyone a lot of time and comfort to develop new skills. Last year, I visited Jammu and Kashmir with my parents during my summer vacation. We have booked tickets and hotels two months earlier. It was a total of fifteen days’ trip. We reached Srinagar Airport at 12 noon, after one hour, we finally reached our hotels. We were greeted with Kahawa (a famous Kashmir’s coffee). As we were tired, we got fresh and had lunch. Thereafter we went to the nearby market.
All the shops were decorated with wooden antiques and firans. We returned at 9 PM after having dinner in a famous restaurant. We went to attend the bonfire event, which is organized by the hotel staff. It was one of the fun events we played bingo. Then the next morning we went to visit Gulmarg, the snowcapped mountains. It is the beautiful scenic view in Kashmir and is still refreshed in my eyes.
We played with snowballs and enjoyed ourselves a lot. We stayed a total of 15 days in Kashmir. We visited Sonamrga, Pahalgam, Vaishno Devi, Patnitop, Lamayuru, Nubra Valley, Hemis, Sanasar, and spent five days in Shikara in Dal Lake. Staying in mid of the water for such a long duration was the best experience I ever had in my life. The saffron garden, apple farms, Nishat Gardens, Shalimar, and historical temples and castles were telling the Kashmir’s beauty. I want to revisit Kashmir.
After returning from the Kashmir trip, I got engaged in my summer vacation homework and shared my travel experience with my friends. Also, I presented my friends with small gifts I have purchased for them from Kashmir.
