During the summer I visit a lake that was far away from boston.
My favorite thing that I did this summer was going to my auts baby shower and going to my birth day. In the next summer I want to go to Ecuador and past time with my family in Ecuador go to many places that I haven't visit and buy alot of Ecuadorian stuff.
This was the story of my summer.

This summer I had to much fun with my family and friends,I visit two big places that was Cannobie Lake and Water Country and then I went to lakes and pools and many places more.

Cannobie Lake:in Cannobie Lake I was having so much fun and my feet hurted the time because I was walking a lot.Water Country:was way bettter than Cannobie Lake but I was lost there because I never being in Water Country just this summer but during the time I was lost I was having fun.

During the next summer what I want to do is have fun like this summer but way more and I want to go to more places like Six Flags.

My summer was sort of fun although I didn’t go anywhere, but I still liked it because I was doing something I liked at my house. What I did was play online games! Besides playing online games I went shopping with my family. Which was very fun, Only if/when you’re getting your self some clothes, other then that is boring!. Although I didn’t go to anywhere I still had fun because I am used to doing that every summer. I spend hours and hours in the computer playing games, about 5-7 hrs, some days 12 hrs+. I’d love to go to a huge! Pool, but I don’t like being in public pools. For the next summer vacation I would really like to go to a pool, water country and those type of fun stuff. Maybe even go to my country.

What is FEEDBACK? Feedback is what a person who reads your work writes back to you SO YOU CAN MAKE YOUR WORK EVEN BETTER!

I left a question or two for everyone. Your job is to answer my question (FEEDBACK).

FEEDBACK can be a question, a comment or a suggestion. Sometimes I might say "that was amazing, there is nothing else you have to do" or I can say things such as "you did not really answer that question, can you try it again" or I might ask you to explain something in your work.

We went to the beach,to the mall, see my other family in other places, camp out, mvie theather with my dad and my friends, i went to eat with my friends, we did so many things together. My favorite thing was being with my dad because I had a long leaving with my mom with out my dad.

Water Country is more fun than Cannobie lake because all the rides are with water and when is hot it feels good and the rides are scary like the "tobogan" that goes almost straight and it drop you and a pool.

In this summer I went to the river, pool, sea and party’s .I went to Dominican Republic for the whole summer. My favorite thing that I did during the summer was to be with my whole family in Dominican Republic and with my entire old friend over there, that’s was my favorite vacation in my whole life. If it’s possible I would like to do in the next summer is to go back to Dominican Republic again to be with my people and have a great vacation in my country.
