My Last Two Vacations
Last summer I went to Seattle with my family, and the summer before I went to Miami. Seattle is a busy city, but I didn’t see much of it. I visited my cousins in one of the suburbs, and it rained every day. Then I went shopping with my family. Really, that was not a lot of fun. The summer before, I went to Miami on vacation. That was a more exciting vacation. The weather was better because it was sunny. We went to the beach every day, and I surfed and swam.

Write your own answer ,

      I live in a quiet village. The weather is warm and sunny most of the year. The village is small, and the people are friendly. I know all of my neighbors, and most of my relatives live in the village. My friend, Reem, lives in a large city. She loves it. But the city is busier and noisier than my village. It’s also more expensive to live in Jamal’s apartment in the city. And the worst part is that the weather is always cloudier and colder than in my village by the sea.
