Writing exercise

The last trip I went was a team-building event with all my colleagues, sounds like a big team, but there were just six of us. It was still summer and we went the most eastern island of China called Sheng Si island, we were too excited about it so we were kind of a little bit down when first seeing the obsolete old buildings and the gray ocean. But you got to know more before you do the judgment. The owner of our hotel told us where the best beach was and proudly claimed all the seafood on the island were the freshest, and he was right. We went a small restaurant and had the most delicious seafood noodles ever. Then we went to the beach and I laid on the chair doing nothing and watched my colleagues playing like children. I can still feel the freezing right now. When the sun went down the little island was kindled gradually by the uncountable warm lights, we sat around a big table and barbecued, I couldn’t remember whose suggestion was then we started a super fun game called ‘crazy interaction ‘ .We decided to competitive by split into two teams. We laughed at shouted, even got some audiences around us. At the end, nobody cared about the result, because we already got most wonderful memories. I realize It was a perfect trip until I write the words down.

We went to a small restaurant and had the most delicious seafood noodles ever. Then we went to the beach and I lay on the chair doing nothing but watching my colleagues playing like children. I can still feel the freezing (you mean the cold air?) right now. When the sun went down, the little island was kindled (what do you mean?) gradually by the countless warm lights. We sat around a big table and had a bbq. I couldn’t remember whose suggestion it was but then we started to play a super fun game called ‘crazy interaction ‘ .We decided to compete by splitting into two teams. We laughed at shouted, and even got some audience / people crowding around us. At the end, nobody cared about the result, because we had already created the most wonderful memories. I realize it was a perfect trip until I write the words down. (you mean it wasn’t actually perfect…?)
