and more exciting moments. This year I have come up with a list of 20 highlights. Unfortunately, I had to pick only two to write in this essay. These highlights are; going to Nike tennis camp and going to Washington DC. Disappointingly there was one horrific lowlight it was Popo catching pneumonia. This year I went to the same tennis camp as last year. Although it was in the same place the coaches have changed. There were about five new coaches Parker, Eric, Rachel, Marjani, and lastly John MG. This year we had to play lots and lots of tennis while getting lots of fun activities planned for us. On the first day we had our evaluation of groups, although I was in the higher level at the beginning, Nick and I leveled together in the same group at the end. On the second day we had sports night where we would get to play basketball, play tennis, rock climb, or play soccer. On the third day we played our first tournament matches, I lost both of mine. On the fourth day we went to the beach to chill for about 5 hours. Following that night we had a casino/dance night. On the next night we went to beach/boardwalk there, Nick and I did many rides including log ride and cable car. Around 9 that night we went to play a round of mini golf. But, the concluding reason that I enjoyed this camp so much was because we had such good tennis coaches to help us improve our tennis ability.
The first time we ever went out of California for summer vacation for a long time is when we went to Washington DC. Although we were only there 
for a week, I bet that was the only place on earth where I walked for 10 hours a day. On second 
day we went to the U.S mint, the place where they print all the money. On the third we went to the spy museum with Uncle Han, Auntie Lilar, Maxine, Emma and Connor. On the fourth day we went to the air and space museum. If any one were to come to Washington DC, a must see place is the Air and space museum. At the museum there are jet simulations that actually flip and turn. On the last day we saw my old friend Gray Gams. We went to the Lincoln memorial and there I saw a squirrel that got so close to me it touched me. I loved Washington Because it was such a memorable experience and because we were able to have an exciting tour of a place we have never traveled to.

Now for the lowlight, at the beginning of the summer everyone was very happy until this event happened. My grandmother caught pneumonia. This was a horrid event in result of my mother having to leave California and go back to Taiwan, Which was my only lowlight. But only having one lowlight is pretty good in one summer vacation so in conclusion my summer was terrific.
