Model Answer 1:
Alton National Park is located adjacent to the Moonie highway in South West 
Queensland in Australia and mostly famous for the rare species at the park. 
The park is under the reign of Baloone Shire local government and mostly 
famous for camping inside the park. But there are no facilities for the campers 
except the open spaces. People who go for camping at the park are self-
sufficient. They usually carry all their necessary items and amenities required 
for the camping. The campers can do everything except creating an open fire 
for enjoyment. The authority is always alert about the issue as there were 
some fire related accidents took place here in past. Besides, the natural view of 
the park is outstanding and in the moonlit night the night views are wonderful. 
But the visitors need to be careful whatever they do here as this is a restricted 
area as it houses rare species and they should not be disturbed in any way.
Well, if you ask exactly how it looks like, the shape cannot be described in 
words. It does not have any specific shape or size rather the park has stretched 
for over 5 kilometres and decorated with varieties of trees and some 
mountains. It looks like a planned hilly garden with different plants which are 
standing with unity. There are many open spaces as well where the campers 
place their tents. The park is also the combination of two towns and a village 
and as a result, the park is always crowded in some parts and the other parts 
remain silent. It is a perfect place for bird watching. Various rare birds are 
found in the park and it is a prime destination for the bird watchers in 
Queensland. 
The question ‘what I did there’ is simple but I am afraid the answer cannot be 
finished in few sentences. Since the park was a half an hour drive from my 
home, I usually visited the park in the holidays and took part in various types of 
activities inside the Alton National Park. I went to the park for numerous times 
and mostly I went for camping purpose. When I was a graduate level student, I 
and my friends used to come here for camping at nights. It was a kind of 
celebration for us whenever we finished one of our semesters. It became a 
tradition for seven of us. Sometimes I used to visit the park in holidays for bird 
watching as well and have spotted different birds at their nest rested high on 
the tree-tops.

Ummm! Actually, it was the age for me when everything appeared good. In 
fact, that was the time of enjoyment for me. In my youth days, I travelled in 
different parts of Australia and had spent a large portion of time mostly in the 
Alton National Park for many reasons. The most important thing is its natural 
scenario and the views of the deep blue sky from the ground level. In the 
bright summer days, the sky views were breathtaking and I mostly went there 
in the evenings to enjoy the blue sky and sunset. Sometimes I turned into the 
audience for mountain biking during the events and supported for my 
favourite bikers.

Living in Florida has some special benefits. This is the place where you can find 
lots of parks and gardens where you can enjoy your leisure hours. I frequently 
visit Madison Blue Springs State Park for relaxation. This is a very good place. 
Thank you for the question.
This is one of the newest state parks in Florida. In fact, the park is physically 
located around 10 miles away from Madison. The park is famous for its spring. 
I have never seen such a clear spring before. So, the spot has become a fame 
for swimming. Further, it has become a great and attractive place for the 
limestone basin. The basin is located on the west bank of Withlacoochee 
River.
The park has a stunning look. The entire locality is filled with natural resources. 
Due to the natural environment, the water in the park is always cool. It has 
some underwater caves which are great for diving. The spring is about 82 feet 
in width and 25 feet in depth. The entire park has both hard woods and pines. 
As a result, the park has got a charming view from all the sides. Many of the 
visitors come here only to enjoy the scenic beauty of the area. When I first 
came here, I was in love with the park and it was a natural beauty that 
attracted me most.
I used to walk inside the park in the beginning. But with the passage of time, I 
have started participating in some other activities. Swimming is a very popular 
activity while there are chances for scuba diving and canoeing. When I have 
enough time with me and I am with my family members, I hire a canoe and 
float on the water. But if I am alone, I take a scuba dive. Unluckily, I cannot go 
in to deep with the scuba diving as my certification does not permit me. But

swimming is my regular activity and I love to swim in the cool water.
I enjoyed spending time here for some special reasons. The most important 
thing is that this is the place where I can get the peace of mind. The locality is 
far away from the city and a special sense of serenity is prevailing in the air of 
the park. Moreover, the attractive spring, swimming in the water and other 
recreational activities help me to get rid of my civic troubles. When I get back 
to the city, I feel refreshed and can focus on my activities attentively. For all 
the reasons, I enjoy spending time in Madison Blue Springs State Park of 
Florida.
