Um, well, I think that this was a very interesting experience for my family because it, uh, could be the time for my family to spend together and, uh, strengthen our bonds. Uh, well, unfortunately, the weather was unexpectedly bad because, uh, on the day we had a trip aboard a boat to go to the ocean and discover the caves in the harbor on the bay. I was so eager and excited for the trip because this was the first time I had the opportunity to, you know, discover a very interesting place like this. However, uh, uh, about 5:00 at that time, there were. There was a thunderstorm and so that it rained, uh, heavily. Well, actually, we had to postpone our trip in the afternoon.
