Speaking exercise

Original

The travel is very complex. We take plane to singapore, and we exchange another plane to Malay, and then we take a short rest in a restaurant, and then tomorrow we start to take a small plane to maldives and finally we also should take a speed boat to our destination. So the travel in road is very tired, but when we in the aye-land, the view is very very beautiful the sea is very blue, I don’t want to say clean, it’s very clear. When we dive in the sea, I can see many kinds of fish. For example, I saw the little shark, clown fish, sea star, jelly fish, coral. Every day I dove in the sea. The first time my son was very scared of the sea he didn’t want to stand on the sand because he’s scared the waves would go over the sand and take him away. But when he tried many times beside the sand, he also looked his father and me dive in the sea, he would more and more comfortable, and wasn’t afraid of the waves. We took many toys, like a floatie.

Traveling there is very complicated. We took a plane to singapore, and we changed to another plane going to Malay, and then we took a short rest in a restaurant, and then the next day we took a small plane to Maldives. Finally we had to take a speed boat to reach our destination. So getting there is very tiring, but when we got to the island, the view was very  beautiful; the sea was very blue and very clear. When we went snorkelling, I  saw many kinds of fish. For example, I saw a little shark, clown fish, star fish, jelly fish, and coral. Every day I went snorkeling. The first time we went to the beach, my son was very scared of the ocean he didn’t want to stand on the sand because he was scared the waves would go over the sand and take him away/pull him in. But when he tried many times beside the sand, he also watched his father and I dive in the sea, he became more and more comfortable, and wasn’t afraid of the waves. We took many toys, like a big pineapple floatie.
