I'd like to tell you about one of my weekends. My last weekend was really great. My father decided to go fishing, so we got up very early and went to the lake. It was very nice there. The weather was good and it was warm. We took our fishing rods and began fishing. It was very quiet. I caught many fish. The biggest one was as big as a hamster. After that we swam in the lake and sunbathed. In the afternoon we went back home. When we got home my mother cooked a very tasty fish soup. So that was my last weekend.
Я хотел бы рассказать вам об одном из моих выходных. Мой выходной был действительно отличным. Мой папа решил пойти на рыбалку, поэтому мы встали очень рано и пошли в озеро. Там было очень хорошо. Погода была хорошая, было тепло. Мы взяли наши удочки, и начали ловить рыбу. Было очень тихо. Я поймал много рыбы. Самая большая была размером с хомяка. После этого мы плавали в озере и загорали. Днем мы возвратились домой. Когда мы возвратились домой, моя мама приготовила очень вкусную уху. Вот таким был мой выходной.

Almost every summer I visit my grandparents there. This summer was not an exception. In June and July I stayed in the country. There I enjoyed fresh air, pleasant views of the surrounding nature. I helped my grandma and grandpa about home and in the garden. I watered plants and weeded the garden, mowed the long grass.

Besides my grandparents, I have some friends in the country. This summer we went fishing and camping together. It was fun to play ball on the grass! Also we liked lying in the sun and bathing in the river. In the evening we went boating on the lake. We went to the forest and gathered raspberries. It was a real pleasure to stay out of town!
In August I stayed in the town reading books, preparing for school.
So, I spent my holidays very well and had a good rest!
