An Exciting Trip

One day in Beijing

Last 1st Aug, I had a wonderful trip in Beijing. As the capital of our country, I want to go there for a long time, from I know it.

In the morning, I started off from my friend’s home in Tianjin. Unfortunately, I woke up late. When I was ready to go out, I couldn’t get the Multiple Unit Trains on time.

In the evening, I saw the function of falling the national flag. I had seen it many times at the TV, but the first time in firsthand. As a Chinese, I was so proud for my country.
