A Memorable Vacation

I will never forget when I went to El Salvador for a Christmas vacation. It was the Christmas of the year 2004. It had been four years since I had seen my family and friends. It all started when I left Cleveland Hopkins Airport on a cold winter morning when there was lots of snow. When I arrived in El Salvador the weather was a lot different. Instead of snowing it was warm and there was a nice blue sky where the sun was shining bright. My family was at
the airport waiting for me happily, after they greeted me we drove home. At home there was a lot of my favorite food that my mom made. The first day I stayed home talking with my family about how different life is in the United States. The next day it was a beautiful morning so we went to the beach, we swam, played, ate, and really enjoyed everything. Two days later it was Christmas and there was lots of tasty homemade food and the whole town was having a big party. That night there were fireworks that made the sky shine bright and mariachi music. We all danced, talked, played games, and later that night we went to church. After Christmas was over there was only three days left of my vacation so I decided to spend them relaxing with my family and friends. Finally my vacation finished and I came back to Cleveland were as I saw the snow I remembered the beautiful, warm, and sunny weather of my country. Everything worked out perfect in my vacation and that is why I will never forget it.

It sounds like a wonderful trip with your family. You describe what you did very well. I like how you compare Cleveland with El Salvador. Your ideas are easy to understand because your grammar
How do your first and last sentence connect? Try to use more adjectives like "cold winter morning".

It sounds like you had a nice and warm vacation there. I also like the way you were describing the morning of your departure from Cleveland..."a cold winter morning". You sound like a real writer to me...maybe you have it in you and you do not know it yet. Keep up the good work. I cannot criticize your grammar because mine is not good either.
