Come Visit the BATU Caves of Malaysia!

huge rock! Be prepared to climb up 272 colourful steps to the top cave temple. It is like walking on a giant rainbow! The History of the Caves

Megan: I just don’t know what to do Colin: What’s wrong, Megan?
Megan: It’s my mom and dad, Colin. We had an argument.
Colin: Really? But you have such a good relationship with parents.
Megan: That’s true. And I don’t want to complain. They aren’t strict like other parents
and let me go out with my friends. It’s just I want to join a volleyball team at school but
they don’t agree. They worry about my time for my school work. Colin: Maybe there’s right.
Megan: I’m always very responsible for my studies and I know I can do both volleyball and my school work.
Colin: Did you explain to them?
Megan: Yes, I did. I told them that I really want to join a school volleyball team. It’s a
great way to reduce my stress and have a break for my studies but they were upset and
didn’t want to listen to me. I just don’t understand why they being like this. It makes me so mad.
Colin: Well, first, try to calm down. Give your parents some time to think about this.
They know you are responsible. After some time, you can talk with them again and
explain how important it is for you to join a team. I’m sure they will understand.
Megan: I sure hope so but I really don’t understand why they acting this way. Thanks, Colin.

I hope you are well. I wanted to tell you about my recent trip to Nha Trang, a beautiful
coastal city in Vietnam. I had an amazing time exploring the city and experiencing its unique culture.
Nha Trang is well-known for its gorgeous beaches and the views are so breathtaking. I
spent most of my time lounging on the beach and soaking up the sun as well.
One of my favorite things about Nha Trang was the food. There are so many delicious
local dishes to try, such as fresh seafood, noodle soups, and Vietnamese coffee. I highly
recommend trying Ninh Hoa grilled meat roll, one of the specialties there.
Nha Trang also has a cultural heritage. It is Po Nagar Cham Towers, which are ancient
Hindu temples that date back to the 7th century. The towers are incredibly well-preserved
and provide a fascinating glimpse into Vietnam's past.
I found Nha Trang to be a special place to visit. If you're looking for relaxation, you can
go there. I highly recommend adding Nha Trang to your travel list. Hope to hear from you soon! Best regards, Anna
