Summer Holidays

All the people enjoy summer holidays very much. It is a great pleasure to have a rest after a whole year of hard work or study. People like to travel during their summer holidays. Some people go abroad to see new countries, some people prefer to go to the country-side to enjoy country-life far from noise and fuss of big cities.

Some people like to spend their holidays in cities, visiting theatres, museums and going sightseeing. But a great number of people go to the seaside in summer.

I like to have rest at the seaside best of all. I do not like crowds when I am on holiday. My family and I always have our holiday on the coast. Sea and sunshine, that is what we look forward to every summer. Hotels at the large seaside towns are rather expensive, so we usually go to a holiday camp.

My summer holidays

Summer holidays are probably the happiest days of pupils’ life. Children don’t go to school, don’t do their homework and don’t have to get up early. That is the time when they can visit their relatives and have great opportunities for rest.

I don’t like to stay in bed long in a bright summer morning. That’s why I wake up early, have breakfast and phone to my friend Helen. Helen and I are old friends. We have always liked each other and when we get together we always have a good time. During summer vacation we usually play different games, ride a bicycle, go to the cinema, listen to music or go shopping.

Every summer I go to the country to stay with my grandparents for a week or two. In the village I go fishing, go for long bike rides and help grandparents in the garden. I have many friends there. From the early morning we like to go to the river. We swim in warm water, sunbathe and play badminton. Also my friends and I like to go camping. We often sleep in a tent, sit by the fire with my friends, cook potatoes and sing songs to the guitar.

In August my parents always take a three-week vacation. Thus, at the end of the summer, all our family always goes abroad. We went to Turkey this year. Our vacation in Turkey was wonderful. We went to the beach every day, swam in the sea and in the pool, ate delicious food or drank cocktails. In the evening we went to parties or visited restaurants. Sometimes we went to the beach in the evening and swam in the sea. When it was time to go home, we were sorry to leave Turkey.

Summer holidays are never too long for me. I hope that my next summer holidays will be the same or even better!
