Subject : My Holiday

Hi Mom,
Grandad has been keeping me busy with lots of activities. The day after I arrived, we cycled to
his friendss house. His friend took us on a ride on his boat.
As I tried to get into the boat, I fell with a big splash. It was quite embarrassing.

We sped across the sea and stopped near an island. Grandad showed me some eagles flying
above us. His friend threw some pieces of bread into the water and the eagles swooped and
grabbed the food with their claws. It was a beautiful sight to behold.

That night, grandad set up the grill in the garden. Then, grandma and I barbecued some fish and
prawns. Grandads friend and his family joined us for dinner too. I have never had so much
seafood before! Tomorrow, grandad, grandma and I are going to Kampung Chini. It is a fishing
village on stilts. I cant wait! Hope everyone at home is well. See you next week.
