My Anecdote
I've been to Nederlands with my family many times. When I was ten years old we went to my uncle's home in Amsterdam. The next day after we arrived, we went to a nature reserve to see the typiucal windmills and I hired a pedal boat with my cousins while our parents were buying souvenirs. Then we went out to the middle of channel.
In the channel there was a lot of seaweeds. Suddenly, the seaweed was tangled in the pedal boat. After that, the pedal boat couldn't move and we were stranded in the middle of the channel. We got so nervous. What's more, it was quite windy in the channel and every time we moved further from the coast. We began to scream but our parents couldn't hear us and my little cousin started to cry. Besides, the seaweeds were also so thick that we couldn't see how deep the channel was. So we could not go swimming without seaweeds getting entangled. But, as soon as our parents realized what was happening, my uncle was comming to rescue us swimming but he realized how dangerous it was.
Our parents called the owner of the pedal boat and he came to save us. When we returned to land our parents were already hysterical.
We left the nature reserve and before we arrived at home our parents had already punished us. I thought it was not fair!
Now, when we remember it, we laugh about it.

An unforgettable holiday: my trip to Disneyland Paris.
When I was nine years old I went to Disneyland Paris with my parents and my sister.
We went to Paris by train. We left Barcelona on Sunday at nine p.m. The whole journey I was anxious to arrive at the train, but the train was very old and I was really scared about sleeping in there. Finally, we arrived in Paris the next day at 8 a.m. We entered the park at 9 a.m. and I was so excited because I had always wanted to go to the park.
We were in the park for five days and four nights.
The first day, we tried to see everything we could and we rode in the park's attractions. Later, at midday we could go to the hotel. The hotel was amazing and huge. Its name was New Port ans was inspired in a ship and a port. When the night arrived, we went to bed early, because we were very tired and exhausted.
The second day, we had breakfast at the hotel. Everybody took the buns for breakfast! This day we decided to go to the Disneyland Resort Paris, a little park about movies. We saw all the park and we rode in the attractions.
My dad filmed all the park while my mum was taking pictures.
The third day, we stayed in the park until the night to see the night cavalcade. Then we went to the Village, a part outside the park where there are many restaurants and discos.
The fourth day in the afternoon, we went to the hotel pool. The pool was so cool! The pool had a sunken ship on which you could walk. We spent all the afternoon in there because my whole family loves water and in the pool there were many things we could play with.
The last day, we dedicatec to ride the attractions, we liked it and we bought the last presents for the family. We said goodbye to the park and we went to the hotel to catch the bus to carry the station.
We left Paris at nine p.m. We had dandwiches for dinner made with the buns of the hotel.
I spent all the night thinking about my trip to Disneyland. In there I had tasted the best cotton candy, popcorns and I saw huge lollipops.
We arrived at Barcelona at 8 a.m. and my whole family was in the station to welcome us home.
I really liked this trip, and I think I'll never forget it!
My last holiday
My last holidays were my longest holidays, and i think that I learnt how to spend the time. I enjoyed a lot whit my friends, and my family, and I met new people too, because I was in different places during the summer, and I wanted to meet people everywhere.
The first place I visited was Calpe, a town in Alicante, because I was invited for some days by a friend who has a house there. I went with some friends, and we spent there just five days, but it was enough time to want to come back next summer! We stayed on the beach for hours, in the mornings, just lying and a sleep, taking enough energy for the rest of the day for the night! At night, we went out until next morning. We danced.
Next, I went to Paris with my mum and my friends. Actually, I did not go to Paris, I went to Disneyland. We stayed there for four days, and it was really unforgettable. When I saw the park, I opened my eyes the most I could, and I did not close them until the night at the hotel. I felt like a little boy again.
Finally, I was in Salou. A really relaxing time, and we were on the beach for some days. There, we did not visit anything; we were there just t rest. After those day, we came back to Badalona, and, unfortunately, we had to start our routines again.

My worst holiday
My worst holiday
Last summer, I was in London. I was with my parents and my cousins. When I arrived at the hotel, the receptionist was not there and I had to wait for an hour. While I was drinking a juice of peach, the receptionist arrived. He was cleaning the sheets of the rooms.
My cousins and I went to the room, it was big, cozy and had air conditioning.
Later we went to visit London and to visiting the big monuments and the beautiful bridge.
At night I slept in a room with my cousins. In the middle of the night I was very tired and I was cold, because of the air conditioning. I closed it. My cousin Daniel went to warn my mother that I was ill. My mother came to see me and I had 39º temperatures.
The next morning we went to the doctor, he told me I had to take a vaccine.
I was very bad. I hated it. Suddenly I listened to the doctor when he was talking to my mother and I went out running out of the hospital.
While I was running toward the car, an older woman told me that nothing happened. Later we went away to the hotel.
I felt bad, very tired, was cold and I couldn’t talk. After three days I went again to the hospital. I got the vaccine after two hours later I felt very good.
This summer I saw more hospitals than monuments.
When we arrived at my house, my grandmother prepared me a warm dish.
After a week I was quite good I went to the street with my friends and I could enjoy the summer.
I hope this never happens again to me in my summer holidays.
The truth is that I felt very bad, I couldn't enjoy the holiday as I always do.
