A month ago, I went on a fantastic holiday to Spain with my parents and two sisters.
Travelling by train is the cheapest, but it takes a long time so my dad decided to go by plane.
It is very fast and comfortable. We stayed in a four-star hotel for a week and had our
breakfasts there. During the day we ate at different local cafes and restaurants. First three days
we went sightseeing. We saw amazing cathedrals, churches and visited an ancient stone castle.
Most of all I enjoyed science museum. I learned about the history of lots of inventions and
even tried to be a firefighter there. Now I know what I want to be in the future. One night my
sister Mia asked me to go to a concert of a popular Spanish singer with her. She plays the
guitar and loves pop music. It was a great evening. Then we went to the beach in the morning.
We went sailing and our dad tried surfing. He needed a wetsuit and a surfboard to do that. In
the afternoons it was too hot to stay at the beach so we went shopping. Mom bought lots of
clothes for our younger sister Rosy. She likes skirts and dresses. Rosy never wears jeans or
clothes made of leather. We also took hundreds of photos and bought nice souvenirs for our
friends. It was an amazing family holiday!
