British Columbia is one of provinces in Canada. British Columbia is 944,735 km². There are about 4.61 million in this province.

Located in a sub-Mediterranean zone, British Columbia boasts the mildest climate in Canada. Spring and fall can often be very warm and pleasant, especially in June    and September       . Summers are hottest in BC’s interior, particularly in the south where temperatures frequently surpass 30°C/86°F. Nearer the coast, temperatures range from 22 to 28°C/72 to 83°F    . Winters on the coast are temperate, and if snow falls it doesn’t stay long      .

There are lots of tourist attractions in here.

For example, Stanley Park in Vancouver. There are some beautiful totem poles    , Vancouver Aquarium       , long and comfortable seawall where people are jogging or riding their bike      , soft beach   , and water park  .

Butchart Gardens on Victoria, Vancouver Island        There are picturesque Japanese garden      and Italian garden            .

We make our boat on August 7th, Thursday. We use a plastic bowl, a plastic plate, some rolls, some straws, some paper, and some tape to make our boats. Everyone’s boats are different.  I used a plate as the deck, cut the bowl into a long shape, and sticked the bowl under the plate. I tried to make my boat like a true ship so that it would not sink.

On Friday, August 8th, we went to the river nearby our school. After the little kids finished their race, it was our turn! I competed with other four girls in our class, and Angela  won the champion! I was second, and Maggie  is third!    

I like reading, watching movies, and traveling. I want to build a small but comfortable library where parents can take their children and enjoy interesting and cozy reading environment      .

I want to learn Japanese in the future, because I like Japan. If I can speak Japanese, I can travel through Japan by myself. I also want to learn snorkeling. I love ocean and fish! I hope I can “dance” with fish in the sea!      

I want to travel around the world. I hope I can learn different culture and make friend with different countries people. I want to see Taj Mahal in India    , modern skyscrapers in Dubai    , and other beautiful nature on the world. For example, Rainbow Mountains in China   , tadpoles swim through a jungle of lily stalks in Cedar Lake on Vancouver Island, Canada  , pink sands beach in Harbour Island, Bahamas  , enchanting natural pools in Scotland  , amazing stars’ trails  , beautiful red nature     , etc.

My favorite foods are sashimi  , sushi    , and vegetable    .

Jos Louis cakes     , Thrills Gum , Red River Cereal, Red Rose Tea, and Dare Maple Leaf cookies are five foods made in Canada.

I usually have a cup of milk  and Chinese dumplings    , egg pancakes , congee , or Japanese rice-ball   for my breakfast.

Northern America breakfast usually consisting of bacon, sausages, and eggs with pancakes and served with beverage such as coffee or tea   .

A traditional English breakfast includes bacon, poached or fried eggs, fried or grilled tomatoes, fried mushrooms, fried bread or toast with butter, sausages and baked beans , usually served with a mug of tea  .

A typical breakfast in the Northern African countries of Egypt will probably consist of coffee or tea and a bread item (usually made with sorghum or millet)  , and some regional items, such as  fish from the countries’ numerous sea ports, peppers and spices usually associated with the Middle East, bean dishes, and stews or gruels made from beans and corn  .

My favorite desserts are vanilla ice cream     , cheese cakes  , and tiramisu cake    .

I went downtown on Sunday, Aug 3th. There was a great event at Robson Street called Pride Parade. There were lots of people. The streets, stores and cars were colorful. Many people dressed up funny. Some were also naked! Although it was hot at noon, everyone was enthusiastic and crazy. I thought it was the most awesome parade I’ve ever joined! I hope I could join the parade next year.         

August 4th was BC Day. It was a holiday, so we didn’t have to go to school. BC Day is to recognize the pioneers in the province. Statutory holidays, Provincial and territorial holidays and Civic holidays are some Canada important holidays.

Dragon Boat Festival, Mid- Autumn Festival and Double Tenth Festival are the important holidays in Taiwan. We have dragon boat race and we eat rice dumplings on Dragon Boat Festival.    Double Tenth Festival is our national day on October 10th. There are fireworks launched more than a hour at night on Double Tenth Festival.   I love Mid- Autumn Festival the most because we will have barbecue with our family. We eat mooncakes and pomelo, wear the pomelo peel on our head, and enjoy the beautiful night and full moon together.
