What did you do last weekend?

TV Tokyo was holding an event at Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the station's opening. 7-year-old son waited in line for Pikachu's air trampoline for 1 hour and 15 minutes, although the sign said he could stand it. He was satisfied.

TV Tokyo was holding an event at Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the station's opening. My 7-year-old son waited in line for Pikachu's air trampoline for 1 hour and 15 minutes, although he almost gave up. He was satisfied.

1. Please make use of "my" to indicate possession or association.
2. Which "sign" are you referring to (e.g. the warehouse sign, the trampoline sign, the entrance sign, etc)? The use of the word "stand" is not quite right in this context.
* I wonder if you mean the whole experience of waiting in line was unpleasant for him. I rephrased this for better clarity. Please feel free to change it accordingly in your speaking lesson.
* "... although he couldn't endure it" is also a great alternative. To endure means To withstand or tolerate something that is difficult or unpleasant.

That sounds like a fun event! How did your son feel after experiencing Pikachu's air trampoline? Did you get to enjoy any other activities at the anniversary celebration?

He said he had a lot of fun jumping on the trampoline, but said he felt a little queasy, akin to motion sickness. I was happy because I had the butter chicken curry and cheese naan set from one of my favorite dramas.

He said he had a lot of fun jumping on the trampoline, but _ felt a little queasy, akin to motion sickness. I was happy because I had the butter chicken curry and cheese naan set that was featured in one of my favorite dramas.

1. "He said he ..." is the same one as the one in the main clause, so there is no need to repeat it.
2. I rephrased this to make it clearer and easier to understand.

Motion sickness can be a bummer, but it's great your son had fun! What other activities caught your attention at the celebration, or was the trampoline the highlight for your family?

It was a nice day for a walk, so we walked along the seaside to the station, looking out at the boats and other ships. On the way, we stopped at a new shopping mall and ate donuts.

It was a nice day for a walk, so we walked along the seaside towards the station, admiring the boats and other ships. On the way, we stopped at a new shopping mall and ate donuts.

1. "to" is acceptable but here is a more suitable choice to provide a clearer sense of direction.
2. I replaced "Looking out at" with "admiring" to emphasize the act of appreciating the scenery.
