Today I together with my classmates went to climb the Yandang Mountain. Early in morning we started out and arrived there two hours late. Then we begin to climb. The mountain was high and some of us got tiring soon, and all of us were very excited. We cheered happily when we got the top. We had our lunch there and had enjoyed ourselves very much. Unfortunately, when we walked down the hill, we were caught by a rain. We remained calmly, shared umbrellas and raincoats and walked carefully. Finally we both reached the parking lot safely. In spite of the unexpected rain and wind, we had a good time.
