My summer memories!

       I went to Sarnia Ontario for a soccer tournament with my family and my girls from my team. The people who came from my family were, my brother Lucas, my mom, my dad and myself. When we left it was a beautiful, nice hot summer day, the sun was shinning the birds were singing and it was perfect. It was about a 2 and a half hour drive from Kitchener to there, we ran into some traffic along the way but it didn't matter because the radio was playing and the windows were down. We arrived at our hotel named Holiday In, But this was no ordinary Holiday in, this place had a 9-12 hole golf course, an indoor pool, outdoor pool, outdoor hot tub ,indoor hot tub and a huge buffet that was inside and out. Right when you walked into the hotel room it smelt just like a brand new furniture and you could see how much space you had from the front door to the beautifully designed balcony with pretty lawn chairs and right next to the outdoor pool and restaurant.

        After my family and I checked in and looked around the hotel we decided that we were all hungry and went out to eat. We went to a place that did not look very nice on the outside but did looked pretty nice on the inside. As we were walking in we saw this random guy on the side of the road and he was acting very weird and it turned out he was drunk. As we got inside the waitresses sat us at a grey and white booth. After about 5-10 minutes they came to take our order and I had the home made lasagna with extra cheese and it tasted phenomenal but it was so large I could only eat half. So we packed it up and headed back to the hotel, but right next to the hotel was the bridge that toke us from Canada to the United Stats of America and you could see Michigan. So we stayed at the bridge for a bit because theirs a river underneath and a park across the street and went back to the hotel around 8:30 pm. We sat in our rooms watching a movie until 10-10:30 pm then went to bed. There were 2 queen sized beds and 4 of us so me and my mom shared and my brother and dad shared.

         The next morning we got up around 9:45 am and went to the buffet or some breakfast. While we were eating my little brother face timed us and we talked with them for a bit. shortly after we went to the room and got changed for a quick swim before my first game started at 12:00 pm. We toke some family photos at the pool, had some swimming races and had fun! We got out of the pool around 11:15 am and got ready for the game. We left Holiday Inn at about 11:35 am and made our way to the field, we got there at 12:50 and just made before it started. The first team we played they scored 2 quick goals and were beating us at half, but that did not stop us from coming back, right when we stepped on the field for the second half they started but we won the ball back and scored so we were only down by 1. When there was about 10 minutes left we scored again and everyone was cheering even parents from other teams were cheering too. The intensity was very high and we had so many opportunities to score but ended up tying but the second half was way better than the first. Then we had one more game that day and we won 4-1 and I scored 2 goals in that game and that was it for the day. After that we went to the hotel with the team and went swimming and in the hot tub.
When we were done in the pool a couple of family's on the team came out to eat with my family and I at Boston pizza and eat a lot of food and went back to the hotel and my coach Karen wanted us all in bed by 10 because we had a game in the morning.

         The next morning we got up and went to the buffet as a team and all the dads went golfing at the course and got back before we left to the game. Then we all packed up out of the rooms and left to the game at the same field and yes, we destroyed them 6-0 and i scored 2 more and assisted 1! It was one of the best weekend of my summer vacation, what was your favorite part of summer?, what did you do?, where did you go and with who?

  1. I really appreciate how you expanded moments from your tournament and included lots of details. I felt like I was there!!
    Be sure to read over your work and check for spelling errors. I noticed a few. Try not to use really long sentences because it makes the writing difficult to follow.
