On Friday we had tennis on the top court. Our coach was James. James taught us how to serve. When we served, our partner hit the ball back to us with the racket. My partner was Rhonda. Rhonda was really good at throwing the ball and I was really good at hitting the ball with the rackets. Next we had other small activities. We had to hit the ball up and down, then we had to hit the ball down and finally we hit the ball with the racket frame. After that, we lined up in two lines on the opposite side of each other to try and hit the ball to the circle in the middle. Soon it was time to go because our session was only 30 minutes long.

Have you been to the Lantern festival before?

On Saturday the 19th of February, my auntie and my uncle took my cousins Carlos, Summer, April, Maddy and I to the Lantern festival. We all took the train to the festival.
The first thing that we did at the festival was we checked out all the lanterns. They were big and colorful. My favorite Lantern was the one with the monkey on it. My auntie told me that the monkey lantern represents the year of the monkey.

Next we had a look around to see if any activities were available. My cousin April wanted to go on the bouncy cast, but we weren't allowed because there was an age restriction.

After that we found somewhere to sit down so that my auntie and Carlos could get all of us some candy floss.

While we were waiting, I played with my cousins. We played tag and did handstands. When we played tag, I was the first one who was in. I counted up to ten and when I hit the number ten, I ran after my cousins. We all laughed and we all had fun.

After a while my cousin and auntie came with some pink, delicious and sweet candy floss on a stick.

When we finished our candy floss, we went back home by train.

I had fun at the lantern festival. The best thing at the festival was the colorful lanterns. I hope that I can go there next year.
