Summer
Holidays
I always enjoy summer.
Do you? In summer, I like to relax and forget about school.
I
don't have to get up
early and I can see my friends any time I want.
I like to spend my
holidays with my parents. We usually go somewhere with our parents.
We
love to swim, lie in
the sun, but most of all I prefer going camping. We go to different
places in
Britain and sometimes
abroad. In Britain, I like going to Devon, Somerset and Scotland –
but
my favourite place of
all is Yorkshire. It has a lovely countryside and fantastic old
buildings. The
only problem is the
weather!
Last summer, I had two
holidays. One was in Somerset, in a little village by the sea,
and
another was in Naples,
in Italy. I went with my mother to Italy – by train! It was
unforgettable!
