How I spent my last vacation

  My last vacation was at the end of year, I did a lot of things because it was very long and I had enough time to have fun. I cleaned my bedroom on the first day of my vacation and prepared a time table to manage time effectively. I helped my mam to cook most of days. Also I arranged and cleaned our home and garden with my father, mother, brother and sister.  We did the most enjoyable thing in the middle of the vacation, together with my family we decided to travel to our grandparents’ house in Galle. We had never planned a trip all together and the opportunity finally occurred. We did a lot of enjoyable things there. I flew kites on the beach with my grandfather. My grandmother prepared delicious curries such as ‘polos ambul,dhal curry ' for us, and she kept me, my brother and sister on her lap and told us stories of her golden days.  I felt very sad on the last day of my vacation, but I will never forget the sweet memories and new experiences I got from this vacation.
