Rewrite the following paragraph.

Add colons and semicolons where needed. Note that a spelling/grammar-checker does not always catch these errors.

One of the most exciting experiences in my life was traveling to Uruguay in South America in June of 2005, through the end of August. I stayed with a family of four mama, papa, Guillermo, and baby. They had an older sister, Michelle she was already married and living with her husband. Papa was a T.V. and radio announcer. The schools were closed at that time, so the young people spent every day walking around the city and talking about everything we could think of life, relationships, the future, and religion. One of the most interesting features in the city was el Cerro, which means "the hill”; it was the only real hill in Montevideo at the top we had an amazing view of the city. I brought the following in a picnic for the trip: tortillas, tomatoes, lettuce, and cheese. Someday I hope to take my own family on a trip like this one.

One of the most exciting experiences in my life was traveling to Uruguay in South America in June of 2005, through the end of August.
Was the travel really the most exciting experience?
A better way to word the last part: "from June through August, 2005."


I stayed with a family of four mama, papa, Guillermo, and baby.
Why did you only mention one name?

They had an older sister, Michelle she was already married and living with her husband.
Why is "they?" Is Michelle a sister of mama? This is a runon sentence.

The schools were closed at that time, so the young people spent every day walking around the city and talking about everything we could think of life, relationships, the future, and religion.

What city? You need a colon in this sentence.

One of the most interesting features in the city was el Cerro, which means "the hill”; it was the only real hill in Montevideo at the top we had an amazing view of the city.
This is also a runon sentence.

I brought the following in a picnic for the trip: tortillas, tomatoes, lettuce, and cheese.
What trip?
they only asked for colons and semi colons where needed..
this is an example they placed:

Example: We landed in San Juan, Puerto Rico, for three reasons the weather was bad, the crew had the flu, and the fuel was getting low it was an exciting trip.

Revision: We landed in San Juan, Puerto Rico, for three reasons: the weather was bad, the crew had the flu, and the fuel was getting low; it was an exciting trip

i checked it out and this is my final
