Now I'd like to tell you about my winter holidays. This year I'm spending my vocation with my friend. And I really enjoy it. I'm staying at her place. Her house is very big and comfortable. And there is a big garden near it. In winter her mum always does an ice rink. So we will skate there tomorrow. Moreover there is a good place for skiing. So I couldn't help skiing. It was wonderful. And now we are oreparing for Christmas. Every year I spent it with my family but this year I will celebrate it with my friend, so I need to think about everything, for example, food, presents, her house decoration and others. I'm sure that it will be great. I hope everything will be cool.
