Thermometer in my home showed 39 degrees Celsius. Unusually hot, my shirt was wet. However, I turned on the fan. I told to Mom that I wanted to go swimming. My Mom knew where I would like to go swimming. I carried my bag, and then I go to my neighbor to pick Alice up. Then, we went to the swimming pool that was behind our house. The swimming pool protected us from the heat by its roof, and there was a tree around the swimming pool. There are apple trees and lemon trees. We made an apple pie and lemon juice while harvest time was coming.  

“Come on Alice!!”, I said to Alice while I was preparing to jump to the pool. “Wait, wearing sun block first to keep your skin not burn”, said Alice. After that, we jumped together.

In the next morning, I went to Alice’s home. Today was a harvest time, so we planed to make apple ice cream and lemon juice. We took two hours to make them. After that we brought them under the tree and we ate there. Then, we small talked each other. We thought that people who live in this complex was so lucky, because they could feel fresh because of the trees. Besides, trees could prevent the Global Warming.
