China's Spectacle
She was in China on vacation, when she was around two years old. She had a great time and she laughed about a funny thing that her mom and dad said was that she used to love playing in the elevators in the mall. They said that she loved to climb up the elevator and that she always pushes the buttons when they go inside. She was in China with her mom and dad because they wanted to show her the old house that they used to live in before they went to America. She was in China because her mom and dad wanted to talk with her aunts, uncles, cousins and they wanted her to see where they used to live and how it affected her now. They we went to China because her mom and dad wanted her aunts, uncles and cousins to see how much she had grown. She also remembered that she loved to bang on the drums that her cousins own. She would bang it all day if she could and she got very annoying so everybody started yelling at her.
She went to China to visit her aunts; uncles, cousins and she went to China to have a little fun. When she got there, she got to play in a ball pen and her uncle pushed her in. He was laughing a lot because she looked like she was drowning. She was like sinking in the ball pen. She also remembers playing in the bumper cars and her mom was helping her drive the car and she felt a lot of bumping. She remembered playing with her cousins because when she was little they used to always carry her up and wiggle her in the air, like what most mothers do to their babies. She remembered playing with the motorcycle helmet that her uncle owns and she remembered putting it on, and it kept falling down past her eyes so she could not see anything. She remembered the birds, because early in the morning she heard them chirp and their chirping was waking her up so she always cried when the birds came out, even when she saw them.
When she went to China, she remembered that she heard her mom and dad speak to her uncle, and he wanted him to take her to see the town, places and the stores where they lived. She saw a lot of things like, the funny shaped houses, the stores, the ball pen, bumper cars, and the river. He also took her on a trip around the river and she felt seasick. She smelled the flowers; she smelled the salty water, which smells like salt of course, and she smelled all the delicious kinds of food China sells. She felt the motorcycle that her uncle owns and she even got a ride in it. She remembered that her dad was carrying her and she remembered that the wind was in her hair. She felt the bumper cars and she felt the boat in the river. She also felt a fish because she accidentally fell in. She tasted the foods that her mom, dad, aunts, and uncles made me, and she tasted the fair food in China. She touched the bumper cars, the swing on her old house in China and the house of course. She would like to visit China again, but she doesn't think that everyone remembered her because it was like 11 years ago. She even forgot how China looked liked.
