Last year I traveled to Australia. We went to 3 cities in Australia and those are, Sydney, Melbourne,  Keynes. We stayed there for 15 days. First we visited Sydney. I think that Sydney is a beautiful and a modern city too. People are kind and friendly, sometimes I could understand their English and sometimes I couldn’t.  My favorite food in Sydney was spaghetti and my favorite place is Sydney Opera House. After Sydney we went to Keynes. There are many seas in Keynes, and I went there, the beach is very beautiful.

Keynes is famous for its sea, the sea is very beautiful we wanted to snorkel but I felt sick. My father wasn’t seasick so he went snorkeling he see some fish, he said that it was very beautiful. I was sleeping in the boat and then we went back to our hotel.  The next day we took a hot air balloon,  it was early morning it was very exciting. Last couple of days we went shopping. I like to shop at a pop mart, you can find many interesting things, it’s very popular but it’s little bit expensive. A doll costs 59 yuan if I’m buying it in Shanghai.
