A cruise It was a sunny day. My father drove the whole family to Clifford pier. We were going on a cruise on board the Equator Dream. My brother and I were very excited as we had never been on a cruise before. The Equator Dream is a big ship with four storeys. It has a huge dining room and a lounge. On the lowest level is a discotheque which my father said is not a suitable place for children. On the highest level is a sun deck where most people will gather during the day. We cruised around Singapore. We were served a buffet lunch on board. Then, we went up on the deck to enjoy the sunshine and the sea breeze. The scenery was beautiful. In the evening, we were treated to a delicious Chinese meal. After dinner, we went to the lounge to chat and laze about. Of course, we also went up on the deck again to look at the captivating night scene of Singapore. We could see the lights on the island flickering from afar. Slowly, the lights became larger and brighter. The Equator Dream docked and we disembarked at World Trade Center. It had been an interesting trip and all of us went home feeling satisfied and happy. A class excursion It was a bright Saturday morning. The school holidays had just begun and my form teacher, Mrs. Zhang, had promised to bring the whole class on an excursion to the Botanic Garden. A bus was chartered to take us there. We assembled at school punctually and Mrs. Zhang did a head count before we boarded the bus. It was a long way to Botanic Garden and we sang songs merrily on the way. Soon, we reached our destination. It was a beautiful place. We made a short tour round the garden and snapped some pictures of the whole class. We then found a spacious piece of grassland and played some games there. Even Mrs. Zhang joined in the fun. When it was one o’clock, we unpacked the food we brought and tucked into the noodles, sandwiches, fruits and barley drink. In the afternoon, we went to listen to a choral performance by the National Junior College choir at the garden. They sang very well. All too soon, it was time to leave. However, we cheered when Mrs. Zhang promised to bring us on another excursion during the December holidays. . punctually and Mrs. Zhang did a head count before we boarded the bus.
