My summer holidays were very cool. In 1 day my family and I went to the rink. And then for a week we went to the mountains, to the ski resort. It was very cool there, we were snowboarding, snowballing, sledding. We also went to the theater and the cinema. A friend from another city came to me for 2 days, and it was very interesting for us with her. My winter holidays were really fun.
