A VISIT TO THE SUNDARBANS
I am Safir. I'm a student in class seven. I'm passionate to visit new places and talk to new people. I live with my parents and my younger sister, Bushra in Khulna. My sister and I watched a travel show about the Sundarbans on TV six months ago. Both of us were eager to visit the Sundarbans and shared our desire with our parents. They agreed to take us on a trip to the Sundarbans during the upcoming winter vacation.
It was December last year. Our final exams had just been over. We started our journey from Khulna River port at 9 pm on a ship. After some time, the sun rose from the east of the deep sea.

Our next destination
was Dublar Chor. When the ship was moving along the river, suddenly I saw a glimpse of a Royal Bengal Tiger drinking water from the river. My sister was initially frightened at the sight of the animal. But she overcame her fear and started taking pictures of the majestic Royal Bengal Tiger. Soon the ship reached Dublar Chor. This island is located in the Bay of Bengal. It is surrounded by a deep blue sea. Once again, we were astonished by the beauty of the island. Out of surprise my sister shouted
My parents also became so charmed with
the beauty of the island. They said happily
Our time was limited so it was time to return
home. I was sad to leave so soon. We told goodbye to each other saying
But I will cherish the memories of the visit
all my life.
