Trang 1A picnic
My father came from his office one day and told us
that we were going to the nearby island for a picnic
He asked us to guess the island My brother and I
shouted together “Sentosa!” He gave us a smile He
then asked my mother to prepare food for the picnic
My elder sister, younger brother and I started to plan
for the trip We were so excited that we could hardly
sleep that night
Trang 2My father took us in his car He chose Saturday as the
island will not be overcrowed We arrived at the World
Trade Center and took the cable car to Sentosa We
reached Sentosa cable car station and took a monorail
to the beach
Soon after arrival my mother spotted a thick shady
tree and spread out a large cloth beneath the tree
She then arranged food and drinks on it Unable to
control our anxiety we started pestering our father to
Trang 3take us for a swim He gladly accepted, leaving my
younger brother in my mother’s custody We dashed
into the blue waters
The water was cool and refreshing, we splashed and
frolicked in the water Several people bathing nearby
gave cold stares Sensing their irritation at our
mischief my father apologized to them and ordered us
not to be too naughty My mother was cooling herself
lying under the tree feeding my younger brother
Trang 4It was nearly an hour; we came out of the water
fearing that we may get sunburned We applied oil
lotion over our body and we played in the water for
another half an hour Meantime my mother had
arranged our food and called us up to eat We realized
that we had to stop playing and came out of the water
half heartedly
