　　Many Americans take their summer vacations in August.President Obama and his family are among them.This August the first family visited the Florida Gulf Coast.The president wants to promote tourism in the area after the BP oil spill(漏油)．The first family took a ten­day vacation on Martha's Vinejard，an island off the coast of Massachusetts.

　　Martha's Vineyard is known for the sailing，sunsets and its tall cliffs overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.The island is about 13 kilometers off the coast and is less than 260 square kilometers.Homes designed like those of earlier times line the streets of Edgartown，Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven.These are the major towns on Martha's Vineyard.

　　For most of the year，the population of Martha's Vineyard is about 15,000.In summer，more than 100,000 people crowd the island.In addition to the Obamas，you might see some Hollywood stars and other rich and famous people.Many visitors return year after year.

　　During warm weather the Vineyard is a good place for many different activities.People can play golf or catch fish.They can ride in sailboats or motor boats.They can waterski and swim.They can take quiet walks along sandy beaches and among the thick green trees.

　　One of the popular places for families with children is the Flying Horses Carousel in Oak Bluffs.It is the oldest continually operated merry­go­round ride in the United States.The colorful wood horses that turn in a circle were created in 1876.One of the best places for children to swim is the Joseph A．Sylvia state beach.The water there is warmer and calmer.Families also enjoy the Felix Neck Wildlife Sanctuary where they can observe much of the island wildlife.
