It was strange but fun. It was a hot day. I enjoyed the cold water very much. Then we went to the mango orchard. There I plucked mangoes with my own hands. After that we took lunch. It was a very simple meal of rice, fish, bean cake and vegetables but it was very delicious. In the afternoon, I and my cousin visited the farm. My uncle was watering the crops. I helped him by milking the cow. It was the first time in my life I do it so it was very awkward at first, but then my cousin taught me to do it. It was fun actually.

under the trees. We really had a great time.
