Oscar’s Holiday March 2009

We went to our friend’s wedding in Bali.

It was a little bit boring and lovely. We had to wear special clothes to go to the wedding.

Our family went on holidays with our grandparents.

Everywhere we drove we saw people planting, growing and harvesting rice.

There was swimming pools at nearly all the hotels we went to. It was fun swimming in the pools on hot afternoons.

We got up early and before breakfast we went to see the dolphins.

We saw the dolphins in the sea. We saw many dolphins in the sea. They were jumping out of the water.

The next morning we went snorkeling. I like snorkeling – we saw lots of fish. We saw Marlin, Dory and Nemo!

The markets had lots of food.

We saw rabbits in a cage at the market. The rabbits were for meat.

There are lots of motorbikes in Bali. And lots of them were at Kuta. This picture has a family of Mum, Dad and baby.

We went to a bird park – like Birdworld. I held an owl. I liked the owl and bought a carved wooden owl at the Denpasar market.

We stayed in an humungous old volcano with new volcanoes coming out of the middle. We went to the hot springs and it was very, very warm. The water came from under the volcano.

There was a temple that we went to. It had a lot of ancient drawings on the ceilings.

We went to the monkey garden in Ubud. I was very afraid of the monkeys and Hat got bitten by one nasty one – but there was no blood.

We went to Waterbom park. There was lots of slides and you had to use these tubes to slide on them. There was lots of different slides I will tell you some – Smash Down, Boomerang, Macaroni Tube, Jungle Ride, Raft River and Superbowl.

In Singapore, I had my 8 th Birthday.

We went to the Science Centre and there was this big dinosaur model that moved like it was alive. I was very scared.

We went to a temple in “Little India”. It was very pretty with all the carvings and there were lots of buddhas. I like buddhas.

We had Indian food for breakfast and I didn’t like it very much. It was too spicy.

We went on a cable car to Sentosa island in Singapore. It was fun.

When we got to Sentosa at the station we held a big snake. It was an albino python. It was nice and scaly to hold.

We took the elevator up to the Merlion’s head. This photo was taken inside the mouth.
