67、 he run thatPossible version:Zhangjiajie is the famous national forest park in our country. During the National Day holiday, I made our trip there with my parents. At first, we planned to travel by air, but the fare was so high that we changed our mind. Then we traveled by train.We had to climb a hi

But my father was determined and persuaded me to climb the mountain, so I made up my mind and tried my best to climb to the top of the mountain. The next day, we heard that there was a beautiful vall
69、ey, but it was difficult to walk. I insisted that we go to enjoy the beauty of the valley though we were not familiar with it. Through the valley was a small stream. There were rapids and small waterfalls here and there. Then we arrived in a big forest and I saw some special plants and learned more about plants.The journey to Zhangjiajie not only has widened my knowledge of geography, but also built myself up. So I think it is worth spending the money and time making a trip as long as we can afford it.
