Speaking exercise

Tell me about your favorite holiday memory

We went to Malaysia and Japan, first we went to Malaysia. We lived beside the beach. Beside our hotel, there were are some golf courts. Then we went to surfing, and diving, and sky-diving. And we went to diving, we could can see many fish in the sea and some people wanted to use their clothes to catch the fish. Then we went fishing on the boat. The fish on the boat was is our dinner. There was is a strange fish, then we put all the fish in the sea because there was is a box fish that was poisonous. So we must go to restaurant to have dinner. Then we went go to Nailiang, we used the biscuit to feed the deer and we scared them. They always run fast, but our shoes were in the garbage can because we stepped on the deer’s poop. And we put the biscuit in my mother bag. The deer all licked my mother’s bag. It was my favorite holiday memory.
