I can remember so many outdoor picnics with my friends and family members. In fact, we used to go outing and had our meals outside as part of the picnics very frequently even a few years back. One such picnic was a boat trip to a nearby island called (say a name) where we went 3-4 years ago. It was a small island and that island had some old buildings as well as a beautiful relaxing spot surrounded by natures. The water around the island gives the impression that you have come to an exotic land. We had our picnics on this island. There was no particular occasion for the picnic; as far as I recall the community people of our locality were planning for a picnic and they settled the day in the mid-summer. On the day we had a big boat that took us to the island and we spent the whole day there.
I remember eating fried rice, roasted mutton, chicken, desert, different cookies fruits and some other food items throughout the whole day during our visit to the island. We drank plenty of waters as the weather was hot. We also drank fruit juices and soft drinks at different times of the day.
It was a great occasion for me. All of my family members and neighbours were present in the picnic and that was a really relaxing occasion for me. I enjoyed the boat journey and the picnic spot a lot. I played and chatted with the neighbouring kids and that was a very interesting and enjoyable gathering in my opinion.
After a stressful semester, my parents decide take me to the country to visit grandparents, leave the noise of city behind. Homeland is a small and peaceful land, beside the Red River. The atmosphere here is very fresh, there is no noise, no pollution as in the city I am living. On two sides of the road there are the rows of green trees and birds singing beside the ears. In front of my grandparents’s house is a small garden. Every morning, after sweeping the house, I am taken to the garden to water vegetables, feed chickens. The feeling of watching the little yellow chickens run around the legs is really amazed. In the afternoon, my brother leads me to fly kites on the long dyke with children in the neighborhood. These children also think some interesting games such as chasing, hide and seek ... For me, everything here is new and amazing. After the trip, I know how to swim and learn many many things. I hope next summer parents will take me to visit the grandparents again.

Sau một kì học đầy căng thẳng, mình được bố mẹ cho về quê thăm nội, bỏ lại cuộc sống ồn ào chốn thành thị. Quê nội là một mảnh đất nhỏ bé, thanh bình bên cạnh dòng sông Hồng. Không khí ở đây rất trong lành, không ồn ào, ô nhiễm như ở thành phố mình sống. Hai bên đường là những hàng cây xanh mướt và tiếng chim hót véo von bên tai. Trước sân nhà bà có mộ mảnh vườn nho nhỏ. Mỗi buổi sáng, sau khi quét nhà, mình lại được bà dẫn ra vườn để tưới rau, cho gà ăn. Cảm giác nhìn từng đàn gà nhỏ vàng tơ chạy loanh quanh bên chân thật là thích. Buổi chiều, mình lại được anh dẫn đi thả diều trên chiều đê dài với lũ trẻ con hàng xóm. Bọn trẻ còn bày ra một số trò chơi thú vị như đuổi bắt, bịt mắt bắt dê, ... Đối với mình, mọi thứ ở đây thật mới mẻ và thú vj. Sau chuyến về quê ấy, mình đã biết bơi và còn học được bao điều hay ho khác. Hi vọng hè năm sau bố mẹ sẽ lại cho mình về nội chơi.
