Describe a place that has special interest in you

Early this morning, I woke up from bed feeling miserable. So I decided to give my cousin a phone call. I asked him if I could borrow his boat, and he said yes. I went to his house to get the boat then I brought it down to the dock. As soon as I looked out the horizon, I had a vision of the ocean was pulling me deeper into the horizon giving me

Describe A Place That Has A Special Meaning To You

The Rock Islands of Palau is a place that has a special meaning to me. It is so beatiful that a lot of people enjoy it so much. The beach is so white. It attracts a lot of tourists. Its so silent there, I mean the only sound you can hear is nature, likebirds chirpping and squaking, also the breaking sound of the waves on shore or on the reef. The view is tremendously beautiful. If you look out the horizon you could see the sparkling of the ocean. There are different colors if you look towardsthe horizon. I cant refuse to go back to the Rock Islands.

The Rock Islands bring back good memories. Sometimes, I wish there was a time-machine so I could go back and enjoy those good times. Every Sunday my family and I would go to the Rock Islands and have our picnic there. The men will go out fishing for lunch and the women will stay and look after the children and have all the fun. After, the men come back from fishing we helped the women prepare the food and feed the children. After thats all done, there is an event we enjoy so much. Everybody has to play including the children. It really makes me so happy because all family members take part in the event. That the happiness everybody wants. By the way, the Rock Islands is the first place I met my first love. It was so romantic that late afternoon. Well, I was sixteen back then. I took this lady for a walk on the beach. She was walking with a wine cooler, and I was holding a can of beer. It was so beautil because the sunsetwas out at the right moment. The colors of the sky were so beautiful that I cant forget that. I wish I could go back and enjoy those moments. If there was a place like the Rock Islands here in Saipan, I would enjoy the happiness all over again.
