Last year, I had a great summer holiday. My family and I got on a plane and flew to Vancouver.
It was our first visit to Canada. We got up very early almost every day. We did lots of fun and 1 things. 2 our first day, we visited Stanley Park and the Vancouver Art Gallery. Later in the 3 week, we visited some museums and then got on a special boat 4 whales(鲸). What a great week! I 5 enjoyed myself. I also took lots of 6 . But we didn’t swim in the sea because the water was too cold. Of course, we also visited my uncle who lives in Vancouver. One evening, we had a party at his house. Finally, after two weeks, before we 7 Vancouver, we went 8 and bought lots of souvenirs(纪念品) for our friends.
Maybe we can 9 again next summer holiday. Then I would like 10 Japan or Brazil.
