Believing That You Can
of language. Japanese people usually speak Japanese and
not English. That was the only bad thing for me because I
could not understand what they said. I understood some of
the words that I remembered from reading manga, but not
the whole sentence. Japanese food was awesome. I’ve tried
sushi and sashimi and they were really delicious.
There is also a pudding made with real milk, sweet
potato ice-cream, and green tea jelly for dessert. If I can go
to Japan, I’ll go back to eat them all. Japan is a land of toys.
And the reason I went to Japan is toys. Japanese cartoons
of people known as manga are huge in Japan. People from
different counties love manga, especially children. There
were a lot of famous characters like Gundum, Detective
Conan, One Piece, Fairy Tail, Black Butter, Dragon Ball,
Ranma, Digimon, Pokemon, etc. Parents bring their kids to
visit this place because children will enjoy watching,
learning, and shopping for collections of their favorite
cartoon. For me, I want to go to Japan because I want to see
One Piece Museum. One Piece is a cartoon about the boy
named “Luffy” who wants to be a famous pirate. His dream
is to get One Piece, a mystery jewelry, and become King of
Pirates. When I went there, it was like I am the luckiest
person. I loved this place. I enjoyed being there, not only
me, but also my sister. We had a good time staying there,
and we hope we can be there again soon. Japan is a country
of good culture. If you don’t know where you want to
travel, I have a choice for you. Go to Japan, and you won’t
forget it. Believe me, it will be your best trip ever!

Detroit
My favorite place is Detroit, Michigan. There are three
reasons Detroit is my favorite place. Detroit, Michigan, is
my favorite place because of the history, the parks, and the
riverfront. First, Detroit is my favorite place because of the
history. I can walk downtown and go to the Motown
Museum where you learn about legends in Motown music.
Joe Louis was the greatest boxer in Michigan history.
Second, Detroit is my favorite place because of the parks.
