My summer holidays in Poland
Finally school was over on the 19thof June. I wanted to have a great time during my summer holidays. In the beginning of July my older brother and I went to Warsaw. We visited my aunt and uncle. Everyday we went to the swimming pool “Warszawianka.” I really liked it because I love swimming. We also went kayaking with my uncle. I nearly drowned because our kayak had a hole. My uncle saved me from drowning. We did shopping in big shopping malls and my aunt bought me really nice T-shirts. My uncle and aunt have a little dog and we went for long walks and played together.
Next I went to the countryside. I visited my grandma who lives in a small village near Lublin. Everyday I milked cows and goats. I fed chickens, pigs, turkeys, cows, horses and pigeons. I drove my grandpa’s tractor. I also picked fruit, for example, strawberries, raspberries, black currents and red currents. I made dinner with my grandma. One of the roosters bit me because it was stupid and did not like children.
On the 27th of July my friends and I went to a scouts camp in Zloty Stok. We took a night train and had a nice journey. When we came to our camp the place was full of mud. We had to wear rubber boots. Next we built our tents and finally we could go to bed. My team was responsible for many tasks, for example, cooking, cleaning, sweeping, changing guard, etc.
One day the leader of my team sent us to the forest for 24 hours. She gave us a loaf of bread and a bottle of water and a blanket. My friend and I were in one team and we had to help each other. We had to survive without the mobile phone and the watch. But we hid the phone and the watch and we met with the rest of the girls and boys at the planned hour. We slept in one place together. Then we went to a small shop together and we played in the playground. After 24 hours we came back to the camp. I spent a great time there.
In sum, I had really wonderful holidays. I hope that next summer holidays will be much better. I think that I will get an American visa and visit my American friends Pam and Tim who live in Washington D. C .
