I was so excited to take a vacation in Florida for the first time. My sister had invited my daughters and me to go with her family and she even lent me her new, expensive bathing suit (泳衣). It was so comfortable.
The first morning we were there, I put on that bathing suit and we headed to the beach. We played in the water, enjoying the views and sounds of the ocean: the waves, the wind, fish, white sand, seashells, and whatever else drew our attention. I was excited by it all while I was swimming in the cool ocean water.
Suddenly, I felt a deep pain (疼痛) in my right arm. My sister saw my face and rushed to my side. I lifted my arm to find huge blisters (水泡) that circled the entire length of my arm. I had been bitten by a jellyfish (水母).
My sister said, “We have to head back to our room now. I will put some ointment (药膏) on the blisters so that we don't have to rush to the hospital.”
I didn't want to frighten anyone, so I came out of the water quietly with my arm hanging at my side. We had forgotten our towels that morning in a hurry to get to the ocean, so I shook as we walked in silence.
I began to notice people looking at me and pointing me out. It seemed as if the entire beach was laughing at me.
Then I looked down and saw why. That beautiful, expensive bathing suit was completely transparent (透明的) now that it was wet. I became the center of the beach. However, I had no towel for the long travel back to the room!

And I still had some fun during the Spring Festival. I had attended my uncle's wedding and my new aunt was very beautiful. To my disappoiting, I didn't get many lucky money as I had expected.

The food there was very delicious and we all really enjoyed myself.

It was fine but sunny last Sunday, so my parents suggested go to Dashu Mountain for a picnic. As the temperature was not too high, we decided to go there by a bike. We were chatting and laughing all the ways. At about 10:30 am, they arrived at the mountain foot. After a short rest, we began to have our lunch, that was very delicious. During the picnic, we sang and danced merry. At about 1:30 pm, we begin to climb the mountains. We saw beautiful flowers and heard birds singing sweetly. We picked a lot wild fruits, too. It was a wonderful experience. At the end of the day, we all felt tiring but really happy.

A trip to a water park can be a fun adventure for families, couples or a group of friends. Whether you prefer relaxing in a tube on a lazy river or riding a water roller coaster, a trip to one of the nation's water parks offers something exciting to everyone. However, the fun does not come without risks. People who plan to go to a water park should be careful enough and follow rules to avoid these risks.
Drowning (溺水) is one of the greatest dangers in water parks, especially for young children. The ability to swim is the most important skill in a water park. Before you go to a water park, make sure that all the people in your group know how to swim well. Do not swim in water that does not have a lifeguard on the scene. Many parks provide life jackets for free - do prepare some in case some people need them.
People usually choose to go to water parks on clear sunny days, which means that they are easy to get sun burnt, or even get heatstroke. Most of the water parks are open areas with little shelter or few buildings to block the sun, so it can be dangerous for people who have fair and sensitive (敏感的) skin to spend a whole day there. Be sure to wear a hat and a shirt with sleeves over your bathing suit while you are walking around.
In rare cases, water park guests may be subjected to polluted water. Some illnesses are easily spread in such situation. The most common cause of water pollution is small children who are not old enough to go to the toilet. Water parks have been trying their best to avoid the spread of diseases. However, pollution is still possible. Guests can protect themselves by trying not to swallow any water and washing their hands after playing with shallow and still water.
