Ithink summer is the best season of all because it is warm, the nature is beautiful and we have great opportunities for rest. summer is a time of holidays. we can go anywhere, spend our time near a river or a lake on fresh, green grass, swim in warm water, or climb mountains, play different games, ride a bicycle and so on. i spend my summer holidays at my granny’s. there are many things there to do. what i did most of the time - i swam in the sea and sunbathed. sometimes i made a fire with my friends at the seaside and cooked potatoes there. it was wonderful. we told anecdotes to each other, and did everything we wanted. i also got used to walk alone in the forest. when august was coming to its end, i went on a small voyage by ship. the ship name was “sevastopol”. but this summer wasn’t for me only sugar and honey. i have passed through the graduating exams after school and entering exams in the university. so the bigger part of my summer vacations i spent sitting with the books. of course, it was not interesting, but i’m glad that i did it because now i’m a student of the best university in our country.
