My Best Holiday

When I was 16 years old, I had an opportunity to visit South Africa with my parents.That was my best vacation in my life, because my father, my mother, my brother and I spent two weeks visiting one of the most beautiful places in the world.  There are several reasons why it was my best vacation. First of all, I like visiting historic place and South Africa have several of them like the Robben Island for example. Since the end of the 17th century, Robben Island has been used for the isolation of mainly political prisoners, one of those prisoners were Nelson Mandela, future president of South Africa. 

Secondly, I like the places where you need to realize entire hours of walking or climbing. The Alexandria Hiking Trail it´s a national park with a 32 km, two-day circular trail. The first day is estimated for around 18.5 km and the second day for 13.5 km. Moreover, the park has beautiful view. I remember that my brother and I climbed toward the highest spot of a hill. It was very steep there and the surface was a little slippery because the day before rained the entire day. On the top of the hill we could see green mountains roll over one another. It was one of the most beautiful scenes I have ever seen.
