Our school closed on June 10. We had been planning both at home, as well as with out friends, how we should spend the vacation this time. There were many proposals. My parents wished to go to our home town,and be with my grand parents for about six weeks or so. My friends had a trekking expendition up their sleeves, while my class mates wished to go to some hill station, on an educational- tour for which our class-teacher had also given consent. I wished to avail of all the three proposals.
 First, I made my mother and elder sister agree to my going on the tour, with my class and the teacher, as the railway concession was already allowed for such journeys. They requested my father to curtail the programme, to visit the grand parents by a week or two. My father readily agreed and decided, that if I wished to go for the educational tour, I could join him later.
 He and my mother agreed to go in the advance party, to be joined by my sister and me, after my tour. My friends agreed to have the trekking, after my return form both the journeys, as the weather in July was also not conductive to hill climbing.
 Thus, the three journeys were planned in the following order: Educational tour Swat in June, 
home town trip in July, 
and trekking in August. 
When the moonsoon reached this part of the country.
 My class-teacher had arranged for the railway concession for the thirty five students and three teachers. We started on May 20 by Lahore Express at about 2 p.m. reaching Rawalpindi in the evening. There, we had tea with snacks at the railway platform since the train stopped there for more than 20 minutes, that being a big railway junction. Reaching Peshawar we had to take bus for Swat. We enjoyed our three-days stay at Swat very much. 
There, we got booked our rooms in a lodge just near the lake. We had boating in that lake four times. We returned on 30th June, very much refreshed and happy. My father had booked our seats by Khyber Mail on July 21 along with my sister went on this journey as already decided and readied Rawalpindi. From there we had to motor down to a town nearby.
 We stayed with our grand parents for the month of July.Returning in August, we went on the trekking-trip to Chitral hill's and covered 20 kilometers in a day. Rock climibing was pretty ardous. Thus I spent my Summer vacation. .
