Hello, readers! Today's blog is about my family's holiday on an island in the Pacific Ocean. I went hiking with my parents in the mountains every day. On our last day, when we were climbing through the forest, the earth stared to shake. The sound of rocks falling was very loud. We thought it was an earthquake or a landslide. We were terrified! Then, we heard a loud noise, but we didn’t know where it came from. When we looked down at the valley, a tsunami was hitting the village below. We quickly climbed up the mountain path when the water was moving through the valley. Final, we were safe enough and we stopped to look down at the valley. There was water everywhere! We went back down to help in any way we could. It was terrible! Some people died and many got injured. We went home the following day. We were relieved because our family was, safe from a terrible natural disaster.
1. On her holiday, Kate went hiking every day.

Xin chào, độc giả! Blog hôm nay nói về kỳ nghỉ của gia đình tôi trên một hòn đảo ở Thái Bình Dương. Tôi đi leo núi với bố mẹ mỗi ngày. Vào ngày cuối cùng của chúng tôi, khi chúng tôi đang leo qua khu rừng, mặt đất dường như rung chuyển. Tiếng đá rơi rất to. Chúng tôi nghĩ đó là một trận động đất hoặc lở đất. Chúng tôi đã rất sợ hãi! Sau đó, chúng tôi nghe thấy một tiếng động lớn, nhưng chúng tôi không biết nó phát ra từ đâu. Khi chúng tôi nhìn xuống thung lũng, một cơn sóng thần đang ập vào ngôi làng bên dưới. Chúng tôi nhanh chóng leo lên con đường núi khi nước chảy qua thung lũng. Cuối cùng, chúng tôi đã đủ an toàn và chúng tôi dừng lại để nhìn xuống thung lũng. Có nước ở khắp mọi nơi! Chúng tôi đã quay trở lại để giúp đỡ bằng mọi cách có thể. Điều đó thật tồi tệ! Một số người chết và nhiều người bị thương. Chúng tôi về nhà vào ngày hôm sau. Chúng tôi cảm thấy nhẹ nhõm vì gia đình chúng tôi đã an toàn trước một thảm họa thiên nhiên khủng khiếp.
