My Weird Thoughts



          One day I went to southern Israel to watch kangaroos, and to ride horses. We stayed in a camping motel. 
 Suddenly, while my brother, my sister, and I were watching TV, my parents told us that we might be moving to South Africa. I kept on asking questions, for example, what are the different kinds of skin colors, and is it hot or cold. I was very happy but I felt weird, because I didn’t know much about South Africa.

           The next day I kept on thinking that I will live in a straw house, and there will be only dirt roads. I thought that because I didn’t ask those kinds of questions.

           So when I finally arrived in South Africa, I saw the traffic lights, the good technology stores, and the nice brick houses with large gardens. They made me very impressed compared to my first thoughts of South Africa.
