KCA Essay Participant 2009 (Elementary)
I visited India this summer for two months and I got to go to my grandparents’ city and some villages where my great grandmother lived and couple of other villages. In those villages I saw people making rice in clay pots. In that village I got to play with house cats, calves and chicks. All the houses had rangoli in the front. They put flowers every morning at the front door. The roads in those villages were small and were made of big stones. There was a drinking water well in front of the house.
People were very friendly. I got to drink fresh milk from home cows. I got to see paddy field and sugarcane field. I got so see coconut trees and drink tender coconut water. I also went to a pomegranate and papaya field. There were also few sweet lemon and lemon trees. I got to the first tractor that was used in the farms which is still running.
In out village I saw beautiful rangoli and I got interested in learning it. I also learnt to make a string of flowers. I want to go back and visit again.
