Speaking exercise

One week ago, my friends talked to me that they want to travel around near Shanghai. Then we thought Nanjing was a good place to go because it is very convenient to go. It only takes one hour by hs train. We decided 2 days that we all available 2 days to travel at Nanjing. So, we went there 2 days ago. We get off at Monday morning and we came back at Tuesday night. It was a very exciting trip. We walked a lot and so we were all feeling tired physically but we were happy. We ate a lot of traditional food there.  I also took a lot of beautiful pictures. I love photographing/photography. I took a lot of pictures of my friends and scenery pictures. There are also many traditional garden. Those buildings with lake and lots of trees and flowers, they makes a very peaceful scenery. The weather is good, it’s not so sunny.
