MY family and I went to Sweden for holidays this summer. My brother and I came by airplane from Singapore with my grandma. We arrived at the airport in Stockholm, the capital.
Oh, boy! I was glad that we came to Sweden. I missed this place so much. I was born in Sweden. Then I moved to Singapore and now I live in Shanghai. You wouldn't believe it. The trees were green, the forests were tall and the water was sweet. We went to the forest near my grandma's house and found some blueberries. They were delicious.
Sweden has a lot of animals, like horses, foxes, deer and bears. The most special animal for me is the horse. There are house camps in Sweden every summer. This year I joined one again. My horse's name is Oscar. He is a terrific lovely horse. He is brown and has short hair. His eyes are round and black.
When I saw him the first time, I want to hug him. He was pretty naughty when I rode him in the beginning. Then I trained him so he listened to me. At the end of the week, we had a jumping competition. I didn't win but it was really fun.
The coolest place in Stockholm is a place called Grona Lund.
It is on an island and it is for children to play. There are a lot of roller coasters and you can win big prizes by buying lottery tickets. The year before last, I won a huge teddy bear. Last year I won a huge chocolate and a big basketball. This year I won two huge chocolate again. It was awesome.
Skansen is also a place to go in Stockholm. You can look at a lot of animals there. There are also many museums that show history, mummies and art.
This was the best holiday of my life!
