Now I would like to share a memorable trip that I’ve experienced. Last month me and my family had a trip to Japan during summer school holidays and we went there by airplane. So we have to set off from our house to the airport by 6 because our air flight departs at 10pm so we probably have to reach the airport before 10pm. At the beginning, the trip was good and delightful. Unfortunately, my dad was feeling unwell in the middle of the trip. I think it was around day 3 or day 4. So we found a clinic nearby our hotel and seek for a medication. The doctor there was helpful and he dispensed some of the medicine for my dad. Although something awful happened but I think the trip is still exciting overall because we went to a lot of places in Japan such as Osaka, Kyoto, Nara and the capital city, Tokyo. The most thrilling part was Disneyland Tokyo because I get to see the Disneyland castle and and are able to write those thrilling rides. So overall, I think it was an exciting trip, although something bad happens. But I’ll probably visit Japan again.
