The Night of the Storm
Last summer my family went camping near the Sea of Galilee. On the first evening, my dad was cooking dinner and my little brother Yoni was looking for stones by the water. I was reading a book in the tent.
Suddenly the wind started to blow very hard. The sky became dark, and it began to rain. While we were running to the car, the wind lifted our tent into the air! Dad ran after it, but it flew into a tree.
We sat in the car for an hour. We didn't have dinner, so Mom gave us crackers and apples. Yoni was scared, so I told him funny stories. At ten o'clock the rain stopped. Dad climbed the tree and brought the tent down. It was wet and torn, so we slept in the car.
In the morning the sun was shining and the lake was calm. We laughed about the night of the storm. It was the strangest camping trip of my life, but also the best story to tell my friends.
