Speaking exercise

Last week, we went to another city. There is a big place we can play water in it. I went with three friends from noon to night, about six to seven hours. I think it is okay, it was not very tiring. Usually when we went to the water park, that was the last day when the waterpark open. The next day the park was close. We didn’t play so tired.

It is the first time I went to play in the waterpark. I went to every city, I like to visit the museum. Different museum has different things. I like some interesting museum and some art museums. I also went to the art gallery in Holland which I really like cause it was interesting.
