A summer vacation to Malaysia and a trip to the rainforest! It's one of the most spectacular places in the world! My brother also says that Malaysia has some of the most beautiful beaches. We have vacation plans, too. I'm going skiing with my family in June! The most surprising thing is that we only have to go to Dubai. The indoor ski resort is open all year. It's the largest indoor snow park in the world, and the mall has some of the best shopping and entertainment. I have an idea. Maybe we can spend a weekend together in October. We wanted to go to the desert last year, but we didn't get there. It's just a short bus ride from your home and from my home. Why don't we go camping there?
