The wind blew softly on our faces. We 41 a lot.
After having a rest, we went to a restaurant for 42 . It was famous for nice food. We 43 a lot of food. I liked pork pies best 44 I ate three. Aunt Kate liked rice dumplings most. After lunch, we went to the Avenue of Stars. Uncle Sam and Aunt Kate were very 45 when they saw the signatures(签名) and handprints(手印) of some famous stars. But it was a little fun to me. In all, we had a good time that day.
