This summer, I went to Camp Bernie(http://campbernieymca.org/), Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Beijing. I spent two weeks in camp. The days were filled with fun and excitement. I went with my friends, Sharon and Joyce to camp. We also made new friends like Francesca, Sofie, Emily, Hayley and Victoria. We also went on a 17 mile trip down the Delaware River. Now that was something! I went with my cousin to Hong Kong. He had come to America for a 3 week camp called CTY. Afterwards, we left together for Hong Kong. I stayed at his house there. Another 2 weeks were spent in Hong Kong, but days were quite boring. We stayed at home all day, with the few exceptions of eating out and Disney. I'm not exactly sure how I actually managed to pass all that time, but some things I did included reading, board games, and the laptop I brought from America. Finally we headed out to somewhere interesting with friends of theirs. We then spent days in our hotel(Sheraton), and went to the pool and beach often. 3 days wooshed by and soon we were going back to Hong Kong before heading out to Beijing. Once again, 2 weeks were passed in Beijing. The first week was quite boring other than going to a friend's house(she was also from America). Then, we finally got to see some Olympic Games. I saw Michael Phelps winning his 7th medal! That was swimming. I also saw basketball, athletics, and soccer. It was all over and I went back to America. I spent a month away from my parents in China, and two weeks away from my parents in camp this summer!
