MY LAST HOLIDAY

Here you can read a brief report about my last holiday:

Last Easter, I went to Sardinia. It is an island in the
Mediterranean. We spent six days there. The type of holiday we chose was fly and
drive. We flew to Cagliari, which is the capital of Sardinia, and rented a car
at the airport. We went to a hotel we had previously booked and we spent the
first three days in the south of the island. The first day we visited Cagliari
and enjoyed its nightlife. The second day we went to the south west and visited
Carbonia and its ruins; on day three, we went to the south west coast to a place
called Saint Antioco and we had lunch in a little village called Calasetta. On the fourth day, we drove north and visited the centre
of the island, Barumini and Tuilli, enjoying spectacular views. We spent the
rest of the nights at a different hotel in Alghero, in the north-east. Alghero
worths a visit as well as Bosa Marina. On day five, we drove north, stopping at
Castelsardo, one of my favourite places in Sardinia, until we reached Saint
Teresa de Gallura. From there, we could see the island of Corsica. Finally, on
our last day, we visited Sassari and Ozieri and we flew back home from Alghero.
Sardinia is a highly recommended tourist destination.

Now, post a comment about your last holiday destinations. Do not forget:
  • To use past tenses.

  1. Last Easter, I was in my village (El Vellon), because it wasn´t a good moment to go out of my house. Despite this, I went with my boyfriend to Pastrana (a village in Guadalajara).

    We went to visit my aunt and my cousin. My cousin Cristina got dressed in the silence procession, and she wanted me to see her.

    That day, my boyfriend and I went back to our house very late and I was really scared.

    So, my holidays have been an outing or a day trip, we went in my car, of course! and we visited my family and Pastrana's Church.

  2. This Easter Holiday I was only two days out of my town because there is usually a lot of traffic and it is dangerous and boring to drive.
    On Monday, we went to Tablas de Daimiel. I had not seen them so full of water since long ago.
    On Wednesday, we wife and I went with some friends to the town of Arevalo. We saw the city walls, very important churches and ancient buildings. It is a beautiful city.
    We spent the rest of the days repairing the house and visiting relatives.

  3. My Easter holidays:
    I was in Valencia. I went to Valencia by car, because it is the cheapest means of transport. I slept in a campsite with my girlfriend and my brother. The camping was near Albufera´s Park and the beach. Albufera´s Park is a Bird Reserve. I also went to the beach and I swam in the sea.
    It was an adventure holiday because I took my car and I went to the beach without any plans.

  4. My Easter holiday this year was terrific¡¡

    Me and three of my fauvorites friends were in Mallorca for a week. Why Mallorca? because we found a really cheap fly, just ten euros go and return.

    We stayed in Mallorca for a week in an appartment near to the beach and the city centre. The apartment had two bedrooms with a double bed each one.

    We took many cabs to go quickly to the places because it could be unexpensive if you share the bill and to be honest its the most confortable type of transport for me.

    There we visited a lot of places like the cathedral which is very nice and the Belver castle where you can enjoy of a very good sightseeing of Palma.

    But most of the time that we spent was in the beautiful beaches and at night at party in the discos.

    For me it was a great experience that i will never forger.

  5. Last Easter Holidays, I went to Valencia with my boyfriend, we stayed for 3 days, we went on friday and we came back on sunday. We stayed in a flats in the center of Valencia.
    The weather was great!!! because it was sunny all weekend! If we carried swimming trunks we would swim, although the water was very very cold!!
    Valencia city is very nice! There are a lot of monuments and important buildings.
    We went to oceanografic, and it is the best thing in Valencia!! I love it!!
    After that, I went to my village with my parents, my sister, my brother in law and my boyfriend. We went on wednesday and we came back on saturday, because I had to work in a shopping center.
    In my village we were very calm, we went to walk by the field we were eating all day! because you go to the bar before lunch and you take appetizer, after you have to lunch, after you take the coffee...

    So, it was very funny in Valencia, and more relax in my village.

    See you tomorrow!
    Bye

  8. Last Easter, I went to Alicante with my parents, my uncles and two of my cousins. One of them lives in Ibiza and he came to Madrid only to go to the beach with us!! =) So I was very happy!! We went by car and we spent five days there.

    We stayed in an apartment near the beach. We enjoyed it a lot, because it was sunny and we could go to the beach!My cousins and me swam a little, but there was some wind and the water was very cold.

    We visited also some churches and we saw Torrevieja and Guardamar´s Easter Processions.We walked along the Port, where there were a lot of boats. We tasted the typical food like paella, Fideua and some delicious sweets.

    It was a very nice holiday!

  9. Last Easter holidays I had to work on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, so that days I couldn't go outside of Madrid.
    On Thursday I went with some friends to spend the day in the mountain, and it was so funny!
    On Holy Friday, me, my boyfriend and his family went to Sepulveda. We ate lamb and then we visited the city. It was a good day!

  10. Last Easter, I stayed in Madrid. At the beginning I decided with a friend to go camping in the north of Madrid, but in the last moment we had problems with the tent. What a pity! Weather wasn’t on our side either …just the days we decided to be there, it was going to be raining…Where was the sun of the last days??
    So, to compensate, we had a dinner in my house with several friends.
    I used my holidays too, to keep the contact with the people who I didn’t see long ago.

    I went with my parents, my boyfriend and my dogs to Puente la Reina de Jaca in Huesca, in my father`s car. We went to my parents´.We stayed there five days, the first day only was used for our accommodation, the rest of the days, we made many tours in the Pyrenees: the first day we went to France, near the border with Spain and we were walking around 4 hours with our snow rackets; the second day we went to Gamoeta´s forest, we made a small part of Camille path, that is very beautiful and after that we went to Ansó, a village near the forest; on the third day, we tried to climb rock Oroel, but when we were almost at the top, we saw that the road was full of ice, so we had to go back; on the fourth day we went to Villanua, and we visited “Fuente de Paco” and, finally, the last day we went to Zaragoza city, to visit my uncle. We had lunch there, and at around 5.00 pm, we went back to Madrid.

  12. These last Easter holidays I did many different things and travelled a lot!
    The same day I took my grades I went to Atocha Station to take a train to Barcelona Sants Station where my cousin Teresa was waiting for me. She brought her car to pick me up to my village, Santa Coloma del Gramanet, where part of my father´s side live, my grandparents, cousins and uncles.
    I only spent a weekend there but I had time to do many things, such us going to the beach, eating typical things from there (¨pa amb tomàquet¨, ¨calçots¨or ¨pastel del músico¨) which my granma prepared with much love for me! :)
    I slept in my cousin Teresa´s and I could see most of my family and we were talking so much about the rest of the family that lives here in Madrid, when I had to come back. I cried a little but I know I will see them as soon as possible!
    When I returned to Madrid, I was with my friends and we went to the cinema, shopping and to parties in the centre of Madrid.
    The last two days of Easter, at the weekend, my parents and I booked a hotel in Cuenca, as my brother was not at home because he was with his School in Ciudad Real.
    The first day in Cuenca we saw the traditional ¨Procesiones¨ and we ate in a restaurant where we tasted ¨torrijas¨ or ¨pisto con queso manchego”.
    The second day we walked around the old centre and we could see many things, the Cathedral, ¨Las casas colgantes¨ or the wooden bridge.
    On Sunday we took my brother and came back home all together.

  13. On my last Easter holidays I went to Granada and to Almuñecar with four friends.
    My friend Mikel has an apartment there in Almuñecar: it's a small village near the beach.
    We went two days to Granada because it's very nice and there is a good atmosphere for young people.
    It was great because we saw a lot of beautiful landscapes and building like the Alhambra.
    But now I've to think about my next summer holidays and I hope someone can help me.

  14. Dear colleagues,
    I am going to tell you about my last holiday: I went to Morocco for three days with my brother in law, to visit my family, and then my girlfriend and I travelled to Bordeaux for homestay holiday.
    I enjoyed a lot, and we met new people. We always went to restaurants to eat Italian and Chinese food and we went to the disco, but not every day.
    We came back to Madrid, and next day, I took her to the airport, to fly back to Rabat.

  15. MY LAST EASTER HOLIDAYS
    My last vacation was last Easter in La Manga.
    We were four friends to an apartment in the quietest area over there.
    The holidays were fantastic, since they served us to disconnect and to be relaxed. We sunbathed on the beach that was empty and was and practically for us. I was fascinated as it was the first time that I was visiting a place I liked.

    It was a calm and beautiful place, overlooking the lighthouse and the rocks. Long walks and chats in the shore of the beach make that this trip a fantastic experience.

  16. MY LAST HOLIDAY

    Last Easter I went to Guardamar with my family.
    It is a village in the Mediterranean.
    We spent 6 days there.
    We had a great time looking at the sea, swimming in the sea, playing on the beach, eating seafood...
    At night, we also had fun. I went to the disco with my friends. The disco is situated in the middle of the beach, near the sea...
    In the mornings, my brother and I enjoyed having breakfast in the garden because we could see the sea without any people.
    Guardamar is the best tourist destination for relaxing.

  17. Last Easter I went to Seville and Marbella with some friends. We had an amzing time!

    First two days, we stayed at a hotel in Seville, and we visited places like The Giralda, The Gold's Tower, Plaza de España, etc. Also we were very lucky because we had a very good weather, with 30ºC!!

    After Seville, we went down to Marbella, to a friend's house, almost a palace! It was awesome! A mixed with sun, beach, trekking, rallies, looking for oranges, lemons, etc. And of course, party! ;-)

    I think everybody should visit these places, because they can show a little bit more about Spain and its culture,also they are very different from the North or the Centre of Spain.

    Just a very good time!

  18. I went to Denia last Easter. Denia is a little village which is located in Alicante.

    I went by car with my parents and my dog. There, I saw my summer friends.

    In the mornings I went with my dog to the beach and ran all the morning. After that, I sunbathed on the beach with my friends and played volley ball.

    From my point of view I think these holidays for me were a very relaxing time. I stayed with my family as I wanted to go out of Madrid because it is a hectic city.

  19. On my last holidays I went to Rabat to visit my boyfriend and his family.Rabat is the capital city of Morocco and it is situated in the Atlantic Coast. To ge there, I flought to Casablanca and there I took a train to Rabat.
    The first day I was so tired so we just relaxed.
    The next days, we went to the city center in morning, to see the bazar, the mosquees,etc. In the evenings we went to the beach to see the surfers, but it was so cold.
    One day we drove to a lake and we spent the day there. We brought some fish, chicken and bread and we made a barbecue. That day the weather was better, it was sunny and warm so the excursion was great.
    In the evenings, we usually ate dinner at home, but we went to a couple of restaurants and we ate sausages sandwiches and pizza. It was really good!!
    These were some relaxing holidays and it was really good for me to get out of Madrid for a while.

  20. The last Easter I was in Madrid.
    Because I had to work. But in my free time I was useful to go to the swimming pool, to the marsh and to be with my friends who were not of holidays either.

    Every Sunday, since it was not working I was going away to the plot of my cousin and to happen from Saturday until Sunday.
    It has been an enterteining summer since I have not stopped doing things and have not had time to get bored. Though I hope that the following holidays are out of Madrid.

  21. On my last holiday, I went to Mons to visit a friend. Mons is a city in Belgium in Europe. I spent four days there. The type of holiday I chose was fly and train. I flew to Caharleroi and then took a train to Mons. The first day I visited Mons. We spent the day visiting the most beautiful places along the city. The second day we went to Ghent, another city in Belgium, we ate near the canals, we visited the castle and ate a traditional sweet of the city named “nose of Ghent”. The third day we visited another city, Bruges, a lovely place in the northwest of Belgium. The weather was very cold but it made the city seemed enchanted because all the shops were decorated with Christmas decorations. It was wonderful: we ate a lot of chocolate and visited a lot of places. The last day we visited the capital of Belgium, Brussels, I didn't really like the city as there were many people and I was very tired, I only liked the “Grand Place”, we bought some souvenirs and went home early.
    The holiday was very funny and I knew some very nice places. I hope to repeat soon.

  22. On my last summer holidays, in September, I went to London with my friend Dani. It was amazing!! We flew to Gatwick airport, in the south of London. At first, we looked for the hotel that was in Kensington area. The situation was perfect, because, we had all the attractions near the hotel, for example, Harrods Stores, The Natural History Museum, Kensington and High Street. It was perfect!!
    The next days we spent our time doing sightseeing!! We saw the Parliament, London Eye, Camden Lock Market...and many more things!! London is a fantastic city to have fun!!!
    Finally, holidays ended...so we had to take the plane back to Madrid!!

  23. Last summer, I went to Istanbul. It is a beautiful city of Turkey. We were 6 days there. I was with my best friend, because always we wanted to travel and to know the captivations of Turkey. We went to a hotel that we reserved. The first day we visited the Blue Mosque, Saint Sophia and Topkapi palace. We were delighted. The second day we went to Yerebatan's cistern, the New Mosque, that of Rusten Pasha, and the bazaar of the spices. The third day we saw Galata bridge, Soleiman's Mosque and Galata tower (the sights in the night are wonderful). The fourth day we went to Uskuda with one of the best late afternoons of the world, in the Asian side, because we did a cruise in the Bosphorus, which is the river that separates Europe from Asia, enjoying a show with dinner and typical dance, the famous tea and shishas. The fifth day of relaxation with the spectacular Turkish baths and we went to a Hamman (massage) that made feel very relaxed, and we dedicated the sixth day to the purchases in the great bazaar where we did not forget any detail and walked the whole day enjoying with the typical ice-cream sellers, dances and certainly the Turkish food, listening to the prayers of the mosques that sound in the whole city, something unforgettable, the really only trip and that I invite all to make because they will be surprised!

  24. Last summer, in August, I went with my family to Santander. We rented an apartment, so the type of holiday we chose was self-catering.
    Unfortunately, the third day I sprained my ankle, and I was with it in plaster the entire month. It was very uncomfortable, because the plaster was very hot.
    The first few days, I had to be resting and I couldn’t go out. But when I learned to walk with crutches, I could go out and do different tours.
    We visited several caves (although I couldn’t enter in some because it was a little bit dangerous). I was able to enter to the replica of the Altamira caves, because they gave me a wheelchair. It was a fantastic experience and I was very thrilled because I had always wanted to visit them.
    We also visited different villages like Santillana del Mar or Comillas, although we already knew them because as my father was born in Santander I am used to going there and consider it as my second residence.
    I hope not to stumble next year and enjoy more my summer.

  25. I spent my last Easter holidays in Italy. I went to Verona and Lake Garda with some friends so we decided to fly and drive. We flew by plane to Verona and we stayed in a hotel in the center of Verona for three nights. We visited the Arena, a very impressive Roman amphitheatre as well as other monuments such as the archway, the Roman city gate, some Romanesque churches and the old castle, Castelvecchio. It is the city where the story of Romeo and Juliet took place, so the visit to the house of Juliet was a must. We ate in some nice restaurants, where we could enjoy the typical Italian cuisine. Afterwards, we rented a car and we drove to Lago di Garda. We spent four nights in an apartment in the medieval village of Sirmione. It is an ancient town next to the lake. We made a ride along a beautiful road through the small villages on the lake: Garda, Limone, Peschiera and Saló. One day we did a boat trip and we could enjoy the landscape on the surroundings of the lake. The weather was so nice that we even sunbathed. I only can recommend this trip, it was wonderful!

  26. My last holiday was very special. It was the first time we traveled
    abroad. My mother, my sister and I went to Paris last October.
    The first day we visited Notre Dame and Paris walking by and
    seeing the river Seine. The second day we went to the Louvre museum,
    the church of the Madeleine and the Eiffel Tower. The third day we went to Disneyland Paris, where the three went back to childhood. We saw Mickey, Peter Pan, Cinderella, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.... and we went back to the hotel very tired. The next day we went to
    Versailles, but since it rained a lot, we had to return to Paris and I
    took the opportunity to visit the Moulin rouge, the Church of the
    Sacred Heart and the Arch of Triumph. The last day before catching the
    bus to the airport, we visited the Pantheon and the Elysian Fields.
    When the plane returned to Madrid, we were very tired but very happy
    to have enjoyed so much in that beautiful city, Paris.
    I advise you to go, it's all very nice, you will not regret.

    We wore white clothes and there we met many people.
    The people from Cancun are very gentle. One day we were swimming with dolphins and other day we visited some places in Cancun.

    I started it at Lyon, where i flew using Ryanair(so the adventure began at Barajas airport)and i arrived there at midday.My trip mates, who were coming from brussels by train, arrived at 8 pm, so i visited by my own all the turist spots around the city center waiting 4 them, like Lyon`s Cathèdral or Lafayette galleries.
    We xpent 2 days/nights there, and we leaved lyon at lunch time and i forgot my interrail ticket in the hostel. Because this, i was traveling to Milano hidden under the jackets and baggages.The train which arrived to Geneve was delayed, and we lost the train which carried us from there to Milano. We had to pass there a full night there till the first train at first hour in the morning.
    A rail company s assistant, minded about it,and obtained for us, 3 tickets valids to exchange it for three rooms in a three star hotel to choose. Hell yeah!
    we choosed it at Brig, placed at the borderline between Switzerland and Italy,and we continued our trip at 4th day´s lunch time xpending some hours by train.We arrived to Milano at 6pm and we met with some local friends, who shared with us his local lifestyle during a day an a half.The last night, this guys brought us to Malpensa Airport by car, and the rest is easy to imagine...

  29. Hi guys!
    My last holidays were one year ago...long long time ago.

    I went to Tenerife but I had not travelled for doing tourism.
    I prefered to relax and I went to visited many beaches all of them with black or white sand as 'El Bollullo' or 'Las Teresitas' that is an artificial beach made with Sahara's desert sand.
    This kind of black sand as you know is because of the volcanic origin of the Canary Islands.
    Well I have to tell you that it was not the first time that I did nudism but it was a new experience there.
    I didn't visit Teide but it is relevant because you could see the volcano from all parts of the Island.
    The most interesting thing I did there was Scuba Diving that it is one of the most beautiful experiences I have done until the moment.
    If you are going to travel there, check the offers about this incredible experience because I know that you will repeat it.
    By the other hand Tenerife has a great gastronomy with its 'Papas con Mojo', its 'Gofio' or its world famous bananas.

    I went there for 4 days to forget the city and knowing the nature, but It was not enough.

    I recommended seriously traveling there.

  30. On my last summer holidays I went to Casavieja, Ávila. It is a little town in the mountains, surrounded by nature.

    I went by bus to my boyfriend's house, so we went 15 days there.

    The views are beautiful. For me, there is nothing better than walk through the forest, breath clean air and look at nature. We went to the swimming pool too.

    There is no important historical building around the town, only the village church, so if you don't like the countryside and the mountains, there isn't nothing more to see.

    The holidays were very relaxing and quiet. I recommend you to visit Ávila.

  31. My last holidays, in summer, I went to Ecuador with my parents to visit my family. We flew to Quito, which is the capital of Ecuador, and then we spent a few days in the city. We stayed in the house of my aunt and the next days we did a lot of things like go by cable car, eating typical food or walk through the historical center of the city.
    The other days we were in the city where my grandparents live, Ibarra. We stayed in my grandparent’s house and one day we went by car to a spa with thermal waters, another day we went by bus to other city to buy crafts, the following day we went hiking and saw a huge waterfall …and the most important thing we spent a lot of time with the family.

  32. Last summer in August, I went to Villamanrique del Tajo with my friends. This village is located in the south of Madrid. We rented a rural house for 4 days, thinking we'd be in Toledo. But we had a great time.
    The house was very large and we had a large terrace and a barbecue, which we take advantage very well.
    One of the days we disguise and went through the village, people looked at us strangely. It was fun. I dressed up as Pippi Longstocking.
    Another day we made an outing to the river because there towards much heat and so we were told people got cooler.The rest of day we tried it our way, with the hose.

  33. Hallo guys,

    In my last holidays I went to Germany, Bonn, for Christmas to visit my boyfriend. I had to fly over Amsterdam and then took a tiny, tiny plane and I barely suvived it. After few hours I finally arrived Cologne.

    We visited a lot of places like Rheinaue (a big park in Bonn) and Kölner Dom (the biggest gothic cathedral in Europe). When we were having a walk in the center I realize that they were closing the shops so early, they dont even work on sundays.

    We went also to Bochum for seeing the musical Starlight Express. It was in german, of course, but I could follow the story good.

    All in all it was a good experience and I had a lot of fun.

  34. Hiiii :D

    My last holidays I went to my village, is between Castilla la Mancha and Aragón. His name is Iruecha but should be Iruetxa, because his first inhabitants was from País Vasco.

    There are no much to see, only the church that is incredible, I dont like churches, in general, because normally are dark and cold; but this one I like, it's big, and his altar is so beautiful...

    I went in summer, only in this week we can bring together all the family.

    20th of Augst is the day when we celebrate "La Soldadesca",to conmemorate the struggle of Moors against Christians in XIX century.

    All my cousins have participated this summer, and my little cousin too, is his first time!!!

    I recomend go, because are awesome those days, and we can learn more about our country. And the night is prefet to see the sky and stars, obviously there are party all those days.

  35. My last holiday was amazing!!
    I went to Majorca with my family for 7 days in a hotel situated in Cala Millor.
    The first days were very calm because we were going to the pool or the beach but from the fourth day we rented a car and drove around the most touristic points of the island.
    The fourth day we went up the east coast of the island and visited and bathed in the best beaches of the island.
    The fifth day we went to the town of Manacor and saw a well-known jewelry factory on the island and Spain called Majorica and we visited the capital of the island, Palma de Mallorca.
    The sixth day we visited Alcudia Port where there are a spectacular views of the Mediterranean sea and then we went to the Caves of Drach, an underground lake where concerts of classical music and a boat ride on the lake are offered (for me the most beautiful part of the island).
    The last day we left the rental car at the airport and returned to Madrid. Our holiday had ended.

  36. On my last holidays I went to Marrakech with my family.
    It is a city located in the central part of Morocco.
    We spent 4 days there.
    The first day we visited the centre of Marrakech. We visited the mosque Koutubia and Jamaa Lafna, the most famous place in this city.
    The second day we went for a walk and bought through typical Arab bazaars, a very good experience that I recommended, because everything is cheap and you can buy typical things of the country.
    The third day we went to Ourica. This site is one of the best and the most beautiful places I have seen. It has a large and beautiful river and waterfalls. We could also see monkeys.
    The fourth day we visited the lake and the park Lamnara, It is an area where we found a beautiful monument called Lamnara and finally at night we stayed in a riad, a typical hotel in Marrakech.
    Marrakech is a city very cozy and is a world to discover. I recommend you to visit this city.

  37. In Corsica I spent my last holidays.
    I was during three months working as Au Pair.
    I lived with a family in Porto Vecchio, a nice city with beautiful beaches.
    During my stay I made many friends of all nationalities with which I visited other places: we visited Bastia, a city in he north of Corsica, which has a large port and a big citadel. Also we were in Bonifacio, in the south, and the best city in Corsica for me because it has a cliff and many old buildings in this city and we did a boat ride.
    Corsica has a good climate and has everything: rivers, mountains, cliffs, caves, waterfalls, islands and beaches. I did many activities like snorkelling, climbing and many boat trips to visit the islands and see all beaches.
    After three months, my holidays ended. I was sad but I'm looking forward to knowing my next destination but nothing will be as my experience in Corsica!

  38. Last summer, I went to a little village in Seville. It was situated in a mountain range, and it was very charming. During the first day, we visited the church and ate in a typical restaurant. In the afternoon we went to a nearby town to walk and see the white houses that are very typical in Andalucia.
    The second day, we went to Seville. The first thing we saw was the Torre del Oro and its naval museum. Later, we walked around the old town to see the Giralda and the Cathedral. It was a pity not to see the inside. Then, we ate in different restaurants the typical tapas sevillanas. In the afternoon, we saw the Real Alcazar, also outside, and the University with its beautiful gardens. We walked around the different neighborhoods, and after a tiring day we returned home.
    The third day, we went to San Nicolas del Puerto, to see the waterfalls. This place is so peaceful and relaxing. You are in the middle of the nature! When I was crossing the river, I slipped and stuck a foot in it! The water was freezing, so luckily for me that we went home at the time!
    The last day in the morning, we packed up and went back to Madrid.
    I recommend going to Seville and enjoying the city and the nature.
    I wish to return soon =)

  39. I was in London last Christmas. I visited my friend Javi, who lives there. I went to London and did not do much tourism. But I visited new places like Greenwich, where I met its famous meridian and the Cutty Sark.

    Another day we went to watch a game in the Premier League: QPR vs West Bromwich Albion. We lived the atmosphere of English football, much more lively than the Spanish. WBA won 1-2.

    For Christmas dinner I took Spanish food: cheese and ham, which were mostly eaten by my friend´s English fellow.

    We lived a fun experience. The London Underground was on strike, and to move, we decided to rent a bicycle. It was fun but also dangerous because British drivers drive on the other side of the road.

    It was a very enjoyable trip which I hope to repeat soon

  41. My last holidays I went to Valencia with my family to visit my aunts and my little cousin. We stayed a week in summer.
    Although we were a week in summer, we visited many places, as the “Lonja”, Valencia’s Cathedral, built on the old mosque, the Main Square, the Central Market built in the fifteen century…The old town is very nice, but also we went to see the “City of the Arts and the Sciences” with its four spectacular modern buildings.
    The food is delicious: one day we went to eat “paella”, a famous dish and I loved it!
    Also, we walked near the old riverbed of the Turia River, now, it is a very long park and you can practise sports like cycling, skating and going to the playground with the children…
    The most famous beach in Valencia is the Malvarrosa. It is a very long beach of golden sand, and it is very lively because it is near to the promenade maritime, where there are many pubs, restaurants…
    Don’t miss Valencia, you will love it!

  42. Hi there!
    On my last holydays, I went with my family to my uncle’s house which it’s in Moraira (Alicante). Moraira is a very nice village in a hill with white houses and green gardens.
    There, we spent five days .During this trip, we all moved in car. First day, as soon as we had arrived we lunched seafood paella, and the rest of the day we stayed at the beach. The second day we went to Calpe, a big city in the coast, with high buildings and a big lake. In this city also you can visit the Crag of Ifach which it’s quite high and it has beautiful sights of all the sea and the city. I strongly recommend you to go here. At night we went to a famous restaurant in Moraira where we ate a sandwich of cuttlefish, it was delicious! The third day we went to Benidorm with all its famous skyscrapers. It was a little strange to see all this high buildings in the coast however it’s nice to see as well. The fourth day we went to Altea, which it’s a gorgeous city in the coast. Is has all its houses and streets painted into white, and also its church, which it’s quite beautiful. Finally, the fifth day, as we were returning to Madrid, we did two stops; one in Jávea, and the other one in Denia which it has a long , long beach where you can do many sea activities.
    I really had a great time, and I can’t wait anymore to have my next holidays:)

  44. On my last holidays I went to the beach to Altea (Alicante) in July, one week, with my uncles and my cousins. I was in a house of them. They have a little house in the mountain and it was very beautiful when I woke up in the mornings and I saw the fantastic views.

    Also, I went to my village one week, Cabeza del Buey, in Badajoz, on the 15th of August. It was Saint Roque's Festival, which is a typical popular holiday in Badajoz. Here, I was with my friends and my family.

    The day before, people decorated their cars with leaves of palm. On the 15th people went to Almorchon, which is the town near Cabeza del Buey, with their cars, and they went dancing and singing for the patronsaint, the Virgin of Belén. When people arrived to the land of Belén, they had a barbacue.

    The others days, I went with my friends to the swimming pool in the mornings. In the evening and at night I went to the disco with my friends! It`s a party all the day!

    And the last days I went to Garcia Sola's Marsh that is one of the most important marshes near my town! It´s very beautiful and I recommend you to visit it!

  45. On my last holidays I went to Cádiz and Almodovar del Campo (my village) with my family.
    We spent 15 days in Cádiz and 10 days in my village.
    When we were in Cádiz, we stayed in a rural house similar to a cortijo because we have friends there who are the owners of the house and also other French friends we met there the previous year.
    We visited many places, for example Jerez, Arcos de la Frontera, San Fernando, Puerto de Santa Maria, Tarifa, etc. and of course we went to sunbathe on the beaches and also we rode on horseback, on Harley Davison, did hiking...
    After being in Cadiz, we went to my village to visit my family but here also came my boyfriend.
    These holidays were very complete and very familiar and one of the ones I liked.

  46. On my last holidays I went to Venice, Rome and Milano in Italy. I'm spent 5 days there.

    The first place to visit in Italy was Milan but it was only to catch the train that would take me to Venice, it was hot in Italy and was stifling the train all the way. Once you get to Venice take a very characteristic transport in the city the ferries, take the vaporetto and heading toward my pension and once there and leave my stuff in my room and visit the monuments of the place as the Piazza San Marco, the Ducale palace, the Rialto bridge, the Bridge of Sighs and St Mark's Square at night is given several concerts in the terraces of restaurants and stayed listening and already at about 23:00 I return to the pension .

    The next morning I went to see the island of Murano to see the glass works and had several shops selling the handicrafts of the place which was the best selling Murano glass. once finished my visit back to St. Mark's Square to buy a souvenir and then return to the board and get my things and with the direction of Rome.

    Arrive early and leave Rome my things on my board and then visit the Colosseum, the Forum and the House of Julius Caesar, also got on the bus tour of the city and as I watch back to the hotel and stayed in Rome . Now the next morning I went to the Vatican where upon arrival I saw a huge row and at first I thought it was the entrance but it was only to give him the blessing the pope himself, between seeing the Vatican and saw how big it was where had the Mercy, the Blessed Sacrament the tombs of the Popes, and had to see the dome of the Vatican but was very expensive climb to the top, had too many stairs and were very close to that seen arriving entire panorama of Rome, Lower of the dome and went to see the play where di Michelangelo drawing the creation of Adam in the Sistine Chapel and the Vatican finished watching I went to see the Trevi Fountain where you toss a coin if your desire is fulfilled and if throw two coins you marry a Roman that's lying there I went to buy some snacks and went to the hotel to pick up my things and travel to Milano.

    Get to Milano in the morning and as I had no time and taking the plane in the evening I went to see what I both wanted to see the San Siro but I had to see the Duomo cathedral which was a great and from there I go to see a gallery of clothing and within that gallery is a picture of a bull on the floor and the story goes that if you step on the eggs of the bull and give flies three times with the heel you fulfill your desire something that either no I think so, and I take the bus pass with the direction of the San Siro stadium. go see the stadium that is larger than the Santiago Bernabeu, be excited because we only saw on television when he played for Milan, I bought a shirt milan team and I took a walk up to the time that I had to take the plane, and then later take the plane that took me back to Madrid.

    This holiday for me was the best since I have never being Spain and hope to repeat if not Italy or elsewhere.

  47. On my last holidays, I went with my wife to London to visit my sister in law and her husband, who have been living there for three years now.

    We arrived at Gatwick Airport and from there we went to my in-laws house. After leaving our luggage there, the four of us took the tube and we visited the city. We only had a few days to spend, so it was very intense.

    The place I enjoyed the most was, of course, Camden market. I kept going from one shop to another, eating at the food stalls (sitting on a bench which looked like a scooter) and of course I was delighted. I found a small shop where I bought a new trench coat. It was kind of expensive, but I managed to get a discount from the shopkeeper for introducing him to several new rock bands. Too bad I couldn’t afford the leather trench coat…

    After Camden, we went to Picadilly Circus, where I drank spiced warm wine and cider, and finally we went back to my in laws’s home, where my “dear” brother in law made me try a hot garlic sauce called “Pain is good”… Well, my tongue is still recovering!!!
