Sunday was one of the best days i could ever wish for.After my religious class, my parents decided to bring me to Marina Barrage.It was opened in November 2008 which means it is still quite new.At first, i was very reluctant to go out as usually,i would prefer to take a rest after my religious class but when my parents told me that they were going to Marina Barrage, i was curious and decided to follow.When we reached there, i was awed by its architecture.Though it was only a reservoir,the place is very beautiful.When i saw my cousins there, i was surprised.My parents told me that the whole family had planned a picnic there. We set up the mats and and arranged the food on the mat.As my uncle was an air steward and had just returned from Frankfurt, he brought back food such as 'chiabatta' bread, 'feta cheese' and the vegetable 'Rocket head'!After eating the scrumptious food, my younger cousins went to the water playpark and the older ones like me went to fly kites.My cousin had brought a canvas kite with a string that was actually a fishing line.Therefore the kite went as high as approximately a hundred and fifty metres!Will you believe that?Shortly two boys of my age started kicking a ball around.They invited me and my cousin to play with them and we accepted their invitation kindly.We had a lot of fun as we continued to own them in the match!



So after a long day there, i was not at all sad to leave the place as i was considerably tired. It was a great day out for me and i was really grateful to my parents for bringing me there.
