MY LAST SUMMER

Hi, I'm Cèlia and today I'm going to talk about my last summer. First I'm going to talk about my trip to France and Monaco, then I'm going to talk about the two weeks I stayed in England, and finally, about my days out in France.

Well, the day after finishing school, I went to France for some days with my parents. We travelled there by car. We stayed in France for the first days and there we visited Cannes and St. Tropez. The last day we went to Monaco. There, we visited the city and also the Prince's Palace of Monaco.

Two weeks after that I went to England with a friend. Every day we had classes in the morning and activities in the afternoon, except on the weekend. The first Saturday we visited Brighton, and the second one, London. In London we visited the Big Ben, the London Eye, the Houses of Parliament and we also went shopping. The day before leaving we went to a theme park in London, called Thorpe Park.

In August I stayed in Banyoles and relaxed. I also finished all my homework.

Three days before starting school I went to a camping in France with my parents and some friends. We visited some towns around the camping, but we spent most of the time in the swimming pool.
