Sometimes, during our lunch break, she keeps us company and she likes doing the same things as me! In
her free time, she enjoys listening to music and surfing the Net. At the weekends, she likes going for

Hi Eric,
How is Spain? Are you having a nice time there?
Guess what! I'm at a big summer camp in the USA! I'm here with my brother, Owen, and my cousins. My
cousins live here and they come to this summer camp every year. We get up at 8:00 a.m. in the morning
and have breakfast. Then we do different activities like playing sports, drawing and playing music. It's great
fun! We stop for lunch at around 1:00 o’clock. The food here is great!
In the afternoon, we have music and dance lessons until 4:30 p.m., and then we have some free time. I
read magazines and Owen listens to music. At 7:00 p.m., we have dinner and we sometimes light a
campfire and sing songs.
We’re here for two weeks. We can’t go outside the camp, but that’s fine!
Well, I have to go now.
Bye.

Hi everyone!
What are your favourite weekend activities? I usually play computer games and read
magazines, but not this weekend.
On Saturday, I'm going to Drayton Manor Park with my family. It’s an amusement park! Dad
wants us to get up early in the morning and leave at 9:00 a.m. It's worth it, though, because
it’s an awesome place! My sister and I want to go on all the rides. My parents are more
interested in lunch! They want to get pizza, but my sister and I prefer burgers! It’s not a good
idea to go on rides after lunch, but we can go to the zoo. The park closes at 5 p.m., and then
we're having dinner at my grandparents’.
On Sunday morning, I'm going shopping with my mum and then, I'm going to the cinema with
my friends, Christina and Darren.
What are you doing this weekend? Leave a comment.
