I'd like to tell you about my summer holidays I spent in Sochi. It was just three years ago. My parents and me were sitting in the living-room discussing our plans for the summer holidays. My father suggested that we should go to Sochi. On hearing that I jumped up with joy and said it was a wonderful idea. My mother wasn't against the idea either. So one summer morning we started for our journey to Sochi.
We enjoyed our trip from Odessa to Sochi. The Black Sea was calm. We sat on deck in the lounge chairs and looked at the sea. I like Sochi very much, we bathed and went boating and swimming, lay in the sun on the beach. In the evenings we went for a walk or dropped in at a cafe to have ice-cream or juice.
My father showed us the famous Botanical Gardens, we went for hikes in the mountains, we saw the magnificent Augura Waterfalls. The sea was nice and warm. The weather was fine. When it was time to go home, we were sorry to leave the marvellous town of Sochi.
Перевод:
Я бы хотел рассказать вам о моих летних каникулах, которые я провел в Сочи. Это было три года назад. Я сидел с моими родителями в гостиной и мы обсуждали наши планы на лето. Мой отец предложил, чтобы мы поехали в Сочи. Услышав это, я подпрыгнул от радости и сказал, что это прекрасная идея. Мама тоже не была против этого. И так в одно летнее утро мы отправились в путешествие в Сочи.
Сначала мы полетели в Одессу на самолете, а оттуда добрались до Сочи на пароходе. Мы пробыли в Одессе три дня. Там живут наши родственники, которые нас приютили. У нас была прекрасная возможность походить по городу, посмотреть красивые памятники знаменитым людям, которые жили в Одессе, музеи и Одесский оперный театр.
Мы получили удовольствие от нашей поездки из Одессы в Сочи. Черное море было спокойным. Мы сидели на палубе в шезлонгах и смотрели на море. Мне очень нравится Сочи. Мы купались, плавали в лодке по морю, загорали на пляже. Вечером мы ходили гулять или в кафе поесть мороженое и выпить сок.
Мой папа показал нам знаменитый ботанический сад. Мы ходили в горы и видели великолепные Агурские водопады. Море было приветливым и теплым, стояла хорошая погода. Когда пришло время возвращаться домой, нам было жаль покидать этот чудесный город Сочи.
