After this special meeting, I always thought  about this kind of holiday. Last month, I had a chance at last to go on such a  holiday with some of my schoolmates and we went to London, a place where I had  wanted lo go since years ago.

As we were still young, we had a group  leader who planned things for us and looked after us. After we got to I/melon,  we went to stay with different families. I was lucky that my host family was a  white couple who had a daughter about my age. They treated me as a daughter of  iheir family during my stay there.They were interested in me and I learnt a lot  of things from them, too.

The holiday was filled with activities every  day. After breakfast, a local teacher would come to take us in his car. Then we  would have classes or go on a sight-seeing trip to different places of interest  like the Big Ben, the London Bridge,and the Buckingham Palace.We would go back  to our own homes after the activities.
