The clock flashed 11:30pm, and we knew that it was almost time. As my family and I stood on the sandy shoreline of Busan city, buildings and streets pulsed with life, people waving LED balloons, street vendors selling lanterns, everything was aflame with lights. On the beach, however, everything was calm, the ruckus and bright chaos behind us. All we saw was the dark night sky spilling onto the ocean of ink. A wave of coloured lanterns climbed higher towards the moon, following an invisible path as the silent ocean quietly whispered its secrets to the breeze.

Grade 5 Trip - Algonquin Park! By Emilia Emmrich 5L

The water rushed past underneath the narrow planks of wood. I was shaking and my teeth were chattering, but not because of the cold. One by one, I watched the girls in line in front of me pass over the bridge. The landscape was beautiful, and a few patches of thin ice covered the brook. A thick layer of snow covered everything, and I felt slightly uncomfortable walking in snowshoes for the first time. Ms. Lockington and Ms. Yocom were standing to the side of the bridge. “Don’t worry,” said Ms. Lockington, “normally, only a couple of girls fall in.” At that moment, I wasn’t quite sure if she was serious or not.
