My first camping trip
Last summer, I went camping for the first time in the south of France with my family. But the dream
holiday that my parents had been promising didn’t start very well. (1) He was so determined
to finish quickly that he forgot to put sunscreen on or a hat, and by the time he had finished with the
tents, he was as red as a tomato. An hour later he started to feel dizzy, and by the evening he had
a fever. Luckily, there was a doctor at the campsite. (2)
That evening, with my father resting in the tent, my mother, sister and I decided to make the
campfire. I collected the firewood from the forest and my sister cleared the area outside the tent for
the fire. When I had collected enough wood, I decided to light the fire. I looked around for the
matches but I couldn’t find any. (3) Luckily, I had learnt survival skills at school and I
managed to light the fire by rubbing a stick onto a piece of light wood. It wasn’t easy but I soon
realised something. It is important to always be prepared on camping holidays!
With the fire lit, we enjoyed a tasty meal of grilled meat followed by toasted
marshmallows and enjoyed the breathtaking view of the night sky. (4)
The next day we all cycled to the village to get supplies. In the evening we
played board games and talked around the fire. I was responsible for the
campfire every evening and by the end of the week, I had become quite an
expert!
Our holiday didn’t start well, but it’s amazing how quickly I changed my
opinion about camping. (5) I had learnt about how important it is
to be prepared, but also how much fun you can have without computer
games, phones and technology!
