the bus station. After saying goodbye to our parents, we got on the bus. It took us more than five hours to
arrive at the campground. We got off the buses cheerfully. We jumped and ran all over the place, laughing and
shouting. It was the first time for us to be away form our parents. Some of us started to feel homesick (想家的). However, when the night party and dances began, the homesickness was gone. The next day, everybody
