Fort Christmas by Phuc (Vietnam)

Yesterday, I had a chance to go to Fort Christmas, a historical place of Orlando. The first impression on my way to Fort Christmas was this place located in another side of Orlando, where doesn’t have buildings, doesn’t have many cars, not so many houses. There are a lot of land that looked like a farm, where has a lot of horses. When we got there, I felt that I was in Texas, not Orlando, because the houses, trees looked like Texas (even though I’ve never been to Texas, I just saw movies). In Fort Christmas, I saw a lot of things that homesteads used in fighting and in their houses. At that time, they lived in a very comfortable house with a lot of household that in Vietnam is using right now, that means America is much more develop than Vietnam. I also saw some things that the Indian used in the past, the things that not as modern as the homestead’s but they looked very similar to the things that Ethnic Minorities in Vietnam are using. I learnt a lot about Florida history at Fort Christmas, I really liked it there. This trip is very useful for us to improve our English by listening to Mr. Bushong explain about things. And we could know more about the history of the place that we are living. I really want to go to more trips like this one
