My 1st May Bank Holiday

My 1st May Bank Holiday

This bank holiday, my family and me, went to Andorra. We went in car. After three hours of  pleasant travel, we arrived to Andorra. We were in our hotel, called “El Pedral”. It is a hotel done with stone.

Andorra is a beautiful place. The children enjoyed very much walking in his green mountains. There were snow and my children had a sledge. They played very much with it.

I hope we will can come back the next year.

Central-Park ( New York)

My favorite place is Central Park ( New York ) , 4 years ago more or less than i could visit him and it is an only experience , to see a great green area inside an enormous city , as well as its sky-scrapers. I like it a lot for the quantity of activities that you can be made apart from going for a walk; to run , to Skate , bicycle , to play Baseball , to play soccer...It is aa being inside a movie.

1 ST MAY

Last weekend, I went with my family and some friends to my appartment in Arenys de Mar a little village near Barcelona in the Maresme Coast. We could enjoy the sun in the beach but the see was still cold for a swimming. However my daughter wanted to check that, and she enjoyed her first swim this year. Saturday I went to work with my husband because it is the day that I need more sell assistants and staff to sell. We came back in the evening and we finished my short holidays .

Saint George's Day

In Saint George’s day I went to Barcelona. In the morning I went to buy a book in a book shop next to my house, but I saw many interesting books and I bought three books. I worked all afternoon until nine o’clock in the evening, and after I went to Barcelona to have dinner with my husband, there were many people very happy everywhere in Barcelona.

SANT JORDI

Sant Jordi's Day

 

That day I went to village centre for a walk . In the street I found the bookshop’s stands where in that day you can find  especial prices a 10% reduction (books have always a fix price). The tradition is very chauvinist: a book for men a rose for  women. I had to buy a book to my husband but he doesn’t like reading. I bought a book for me like a present for him. My daughter enjoyed this day in the school with special activities like going out and a literature contest or workshops.

Sant Jordi

 

On April 23rd in Catalonia St. Jordi’s day is celebrated.

It is a typical day .It is a day for roses and books.

In the street there are many shops to sale books and roses.

Men buy a rose to women and the women buy a book to  men.

It is a day when in Catalonia there are sold more books

MY WORST HOTEL

MY WORST HOTEL

MY WORST HOTEL

My worst experience in a hotel was in a hotel in Lloret de Mar. I went with my husband on Easter holiday. When we arrived at the hotel and went to the room, we saw tree unmade beds. The room wasn’t clean. They were wrong, when they gave the key, the room wasn’t ready. But for me the room was never ready.

MY FAVOURITE BEACH

 

 

My favourite beach is in Tarragona. It’s between the towns of Roda de Barà and Torredembarra. It’s is a beach with thin sand and water  is not very deep. The water is quite clean and you can see fishes swimming and looking for food. There aren’t many people because is a protected space and they can’t build buildings.

When there are waves it is very funny because I and my children fight  into the waves.

If you come to visit Barcelona you must try visit this beach, the Creixell’s beach.

My worst hotel

Marga

The worst hotel I stayed. It was 5 years ago It was in Mallorca. I stayed a night. I went there because some friends recommended it. I was with my husband. It was horrible. It wasn't a real hotel, our hotel was full and they sent us to a very old apartment. I went there on my honey moon. We only stayed one night. Next day we moved to a new lovely hotel.
