Dear dairy, Summer vacation is over and i began school. I had a great summer and i feel sad that it is over now. This summer my family and i went to Greece, to an island Crete. it was my first time visiting Greece. I have to admit that it is amazig country. You feel freedom of mind the moment you land. We were in Hersonissos city which close to Iraklio. The hotel was just 3 miutes away from the sea. Also there is a swimming pool in the hotel. We hd big room for 3 people. Breakfast and dinner were included. The food was great. We has huge variety of food to choose in the morning and the evening. Everythimg that i tried was delicious. We went to the sea everyday but especially i liked to be at the evening. Every evening there were lots of people walking, cafe close to the sea ( actually u sit on the sad and enjoying your dribk!!),bars and souvenir shops work until late at night. We also had an opportunity to travel around Hersoissous. It is a very big island and beautiful with lots of interesting places to see. I was very sad to go back. i really liked it there. the rest of the summer i was with my friends amd helped my mother at home. i am looking forward to another vacation and maybe we can visit another coutry as well.
