short story on summer vacation
Answers
Explanation:
I enjoy my summer vacation as I can devote time to the activities, besides studies, that I love to do. I love to sing Carnatic music and to play the violin. When the session is on at school I cannot go for daily violin and music practise sessions. But during the vacation I go every evening to the music school where I spend three hours singing and playing the violin. I had my first public performance during my summer vacation and the audience was very appreciative.
I love to read both Hindi and English literature. It is enjoyable going to Connaught Place, the shopping hub of Delhi, during the summer vacations, and having ice creams at an ice cream parlour, and getting books that I like to read from the library. I like reading the works of the authors of the past, both Indian and foreign. I enjoy reading poetry, and also penning verses. I have presented my poems at events at my school, and have also won prizes at competitions. I also have a collection of my poems in Hindi and hope to publish them as a book.
Summer vacations are also the time when my mother pampers me and my brother at home. As it gets very hot, with the temperatures touching forty-five degrees Celsius, we prefer staying indoors during the daytime, and our mother makes us lovely goodies to eat. She loves to bake cakes. And so she tries using many different healthy and nutritious ingredients to make delicious cakes and other confectionery. We love gorging on all these sweetmeats. My mother also whips up ice cream at home. She also makes interesting beverages with apricots, plums and cherries.
Summer is also the time when many varieties of juicy and sweet mangoes are available, and my mother makes many different dishes using mangoes. She also hosts mango parties for all our friends. During the summer vacations I complete my holiday homework that our teachers assign to us at school. When the vacation ends I feel refreshed and energized to get back to school for a new semester.
hope it helps

Explanation:
My sister and I visited my father in Gulfport, Mississippi, this summer. We had a lot of fun together. We went fishing and to Pascagoula's USS Battleship State Park. My favourite trip this summer, however, was to Destin, Florida!
We drove for four hours to see the beautiful white sand beaches and clear blue waters. We checked into a hotel and unpacked that afternoon. We rushed to the beaches as soon as we finished. After a while, we returned to our hotel and changed for a trip to Fudpuckers. They not only had great grouper (a type of bass in the ocean), but they also had a real live alligator show with about 20 alligators! It was by far the best restaurant I'd ever been to because it was the only one where you could feed and watch alligators while eating. We returned to the hotel to sleep after we finished eating.
We went snorkelling the next morning. It was really cool; I was nervous at first, but after a while, I liked it. My favourite part was seeing these little blue and green fish swimming alongside us. When we got tired of it, we went swimming. My father and I later went snorkelling again and saw a small nurse shark! I ran as if my life depended on it, convinced that if one shark was here, there must be another nearby.
We went back inside to rest and eat while my father attended a meeting. We went to eat at Captain Alls, which was right on the water, after they returned. We saw what I thought was a shark while waiting for a table, but it was just a dolphin, according to my father.
On our last day, we returned to the beach and swam for a while until we were stung by jellyfish. My father informed me that all the jellies are rising as a result of Hurricane Ike. We stayed for 5 hours, coming in and out as we pleased. My sister then announced that she was done swimming and was going to play in the sand. The funniest part was when a massive wave pushed a jellyfish onto the beach and got her foot. If you thought you'd seen someone scream and holler at the top of their lungs, you'd be wrong because this was the real deal. I was rolling on the beach laughing so hard that I was choking on my own spit. I'll never forget how she ran around kicking her foot in the air and trying to wash her foot off at the beach showers. We left shortly after noon, checked out of our hotel, and began our journey back to Gulfport, Mississippi.
This is one memory I'll never forget. I doubt I'll forget this summer or my trip to Destin, Florida.
