The place I want to go this summer by Eriko

Water as clear blue topaz. A lake surrounded by majestic mountains. Lake Tahoe, also known as the treasure of the High Sierra, is located on the border of California and Nevada.
I am pretty sure everyone has visited there at least once.
I was born and raised in Shiga Prefecture, home of Japan's largest lake, and the lake has been a part of my life since I was a child. Swimming in the lake in the summer and skiing in the mountains surrounding the lake in the winter. It is somehow very similar to Tahoe!
The water in Tahoe is just beautiful. It is blue and clear and is said to be one of the clearest in the world. I think Lake Tahoe can be enjoyed all year round, but I have yet to visit in the summer. I would like to enjoy hiking, camping, and playing in the water in a different way than in winter.
