秋天短假
Fall Break
Two weeks ago was my school's fall break, a short four day holiday during the fall semester. During this time, two of my friends and I decided that we wanted to go to Maine, one of the U.S. states in the northeast, which is also called the New England area.
So we left Friday evening, as soon as we were done with classes, and we drove sixteen hours through the night until we got to Maine. For those four days that we were up there, we camped in National Parks, went on hikes and enjoyed the beautiful scenery.
Because we were up in Maine during Fall, we were able to see the colors changing on the trees. Maine is full of mountains covered with trees, and so when leaves are changing colors, the countryside is a beautiful mix of reds, oranges and yellows.
The only bad part of the trip was when we had to drive back on Tuesday so we could go back to the tiring classes of university. After being in beautiful Maine for a week, it was sad to come back to the normal school that we are used to.
