Suzi’s holidays.
Last summer me and my parents went to Italy. We travelled to Rome,
Milan, Venice and other cities. We went to the Opera and listened to the

best opera singers there. We visited a lot of sights and museums. I took a lot
of photos. We had dinners at restaurants. I really liked Italian food,
especially fresh fruit and vegetables. I enjoyed the trip very much. It was an
amazing experience!
Suzi’s day off.
It was Sunday yesterday. I woke up late, at 11 o’clock. I had breakfast

and went for a walk with my dog. When I returned home, I made a tasty
lunch for myself. I stayed at home in the evening. I played computer games.
Then my aunt phoned me and invited me to her birthday party. It was a
surprise for me. My aunt was an actress in the past and she has many
celebrity friends. I was happy with the invitation.
