Read Colin's email.
 
Hi! I'm on holiday now! Every year our school organizes activity holidays in the national parks
and this summer my friends and I are spending one week in Yellowstone and one week in
Grand Teton. Yellowstone is really crowded at the moment. Visitors spend a few days here.
They come to see the natural wonders of this area (the geysers, above all), go hiking or fishing, have picnics and relax, but we're doing lots of different activities and we are having a great
time! Every morning we get up early: some of us go canoeing or rafting. I go horseback riding.
In the afternoon we have lessons with the ranger. He's teaching us how to become junior
rangers. Tomorrow we're going for a very long walk, called the 'ranger adventure hike'!
Would you like to become a junior ranger too? I'm sending you some photos of our group.
Love,
Colin
