SUMMER VACATION

This summer is one of the best summer vacations I have ever had before. My sister and I went to United States for travel &work. We went to Wyoming and work near the Yellowstone National Park. We spend more than one day on the airplane to our destination. That is not a good memory frankly but it is quite a special experience. After we arrive to the airport at Cody which is a small town in Wyoming. We are stun by the landscape on the way to our apartment. The scenery is so beautiful that can’t believe is existing place in the word. Our employer is so friendly and nice person, they offer us food and place to live for free due to we do such a good job on our work. Our job is housekeeping at morning and be a waitress in the restaurant at night. To me this is such an easy job so I still have great time when I am working. And I really love to work in the restaurant because people are willing to chat with the stranger in America. When the customer come to have dinner, they always interesting about us – girls comes from Asia. They are curious about where we come from or do we have a great time in US. In this way, work in the restaurant is one of the good chances to practice our English speaking.
We always went to Yellowstone National Park when we have day off. The scenery in the national park is unspeakable. There have beautiful clear lake, spectacular waterfall, magnificent mountain and my favorite is colorful morning glory pool. The animal in the park is one of the reasons to attract the tourists. There have lots of buffalo, moose, elk, antelope, wolf and grizzly bear and so on. My favorite animal is buffalo according to its walking posture so cute and it looks so innocent and a little bit dumb face really stole my heart. They always walk on the road or beside the road, it make so many people stop their car to snap some pictures of them. But wolf is the animals impress me a lot. One day when we sit in the car on the way to our apartment at dusk we feel so tired that lean on the back. Suddenly we see three big mammals are chasing after an antelope. The driver tell us that is wolves and we are very lucky to see it. The wolf is so big, strong and beautiful. Although we only see it for few seconds, I still remember what I saw very clearly.
After we finish our work at Wyoming for two months, we went to Los Angeles couple days. LA is a big city and very different from where we live before. We visited some famous scenic spot, such as Hollywood walk of fame, UCLA, Universal Studio, Dodgers Stadium, Santa Monica and Griffith Observatory. The nightscape at Griffith Observatory is so beautiful than Yangminshan nightscape. We came back to Taiwan after this unforgettable journey. I really broaden my horizon in this summer and also realize that there have so many places that I have never been to. I don't want to be an ignorant person so I made up my mind that I will travel to different places every year since now.
