Question

I’m Anna. Early last week my parents said we would spend our vacation in Grandpa’s house. I wasn’t excited because he lived far away from us! Usually we flew there but this time Dad said he would give us a chance to enjoy the beautiful sights.

We drove for nearly three hours before meeting the first interesting sight: the World’s Largest Peanut. I thought it broke up the boredom (无聊) of the car ride.

And then we stopped for lunch at a seafood restaurant. Dad said the fish wasn’t as nice as that at the Fishing Hall of Fame. After lunch Dad drove to a place called Ruby Falls. I took lots of pictures there and started to have fun.

We stopped at the World’s Largest Catsup (番茄酱) Bottle the next day. I did find it very interesting. It was a water tower but it could hold over 600 000 bottles of catsup.

When we finally got to Grandpa’s I was too excited to jump out of the car. It was really a great trip for me.
