Summer holidays are the longest holidays. I like them very much!
In June I went to the seaside with my parents. The water in the Black Sea was very warm. We swam and sunbathed. There were different kinds of entertainments there. Best of all I liked water scooters and discos. We also played volleyball on the beach and made sculptures of sand.
Then I spent two weeks in the summer camp. I made a lot of new friends. Every day we enjoyed something special - games, competitions, performances.
There was no river, but there was a swimming pool where we could swim. We had discos every night. It was a real fun.
In August I visited my grandparents. There I enjoyed fresh air and helped my grandparents to dig the garden, to gather fruit and vegetables. I went fishing with my grandfather.
During my summer holidays I made new friends, read a lot of interesting books, knew many useful things.
