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. 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.
Last year we spent our holidays in such a camp.. We swam in the sea, lay in the sun. The time flew very quickly. It was a wonderful rest.
