My trip in planetarium. On June 15,1999 at eight o'clock we went to planetarium by bus. About nine o'clock we arrived at the plantarium. First we went to third building and we saw many kind of fishes such as Harelequin Rasbora, Siamese Gyrinochellid, Red-Finned Black Shark, Dwarf Chained Loach, Red-Triled Black Shark, Common Archer Fish, Sumatran Tiger Fish, Malayan Gourani and Spotted Featherback. We saw the mollusks such as Giant Murex Rock Shell and Pery Nauttlvs. Those were invertebreates completely lived inside inside a hand shell. Their bodies were a muscle-like mass that was covered by a thin layer of fish. They had a head region and an oral cavity for feeding. Most shell-fish also had a functioning excretory system. Also we saw the shrimps there were Giant Fresh Water Prawn and Giant Tiger Prawn. We saw the crab such as Red Frog Crab, Semrrated Mud Crab, Bule swimming Crab and Musk crab. After that we went to the museum to see the insects. Those insects were Order Hemiptera, Order Homoptera, Order Lepidopltera and Order O ponata. Then we had lunch and went to planetarium. Wehad a new knowledge about planets, stars and sun. There were very interesting. Later we went to a next building, there was about "dinosaur". We were very exciting. We found so much information about the ancient people. We knew why the ancient people died? It is because the fires, droughts, tidal waves, landslides, avalanches, heat waves, volcanoes, snowstorm, thunderstorm with torn ado, earthquakes and tropical cyclones. Then we went to the their floor, there were about dinosaurs. There were two kinds of dinosaurs. They called carnivores and herbivores. Finally we traveled all of them except first building. We went to downstairs for a pause. Then we went to KFC and came to school.

My last vacation My last vacation was in China. I went there by airplane with my mother and my grandmother. We lived in the hotel for one week. The weather in China was so cold. I found something about China so interestind. There were no dogs around the streets because Chinese people liked to eat them. I think the dogs are delicious for them. And Chinese people did not use a car, they used only bicycle or they went by buses. The guide said if everybody used their own car, there will be congested streets. After that we went to the Great Wall. But my grandmother did not go because she was old and she had climbed it long ago. Then my mother and I climbed it and there was a high wind, so we could not go on. We went down and bought some gifts for my cousins. After that we went to have lunch in the restaurant. I did not like it anymore, I think Thai food is better, but some China food, I like. I think I will go to Japan next vacation.
