The Summer Holidays are Coming!

Read the text below and answer the questions 😊            

Hi guys! Now I am trying to do my homework, but I must say that I am looking forward to the summer holidays. There are still a few weeks to go but believe me, my friends and I are finding it difficult to work because it's too hot!!! My family, that is my father John, my mother Susan, my little sister Sue and me, Mike, are going to leave our small terraced house in London at the end of July. We are going to go to Brittany in France - a camp site by the sea, near Saint Malo. There, we are going to do nothing but lie on the beach, sunbathe, make huge sandcastles, swim and ride our bikes. I have been there already, it was last year, and I know there can be some wind at times, so I am going to take my brand-new kite with me. I am sure to meet some new friends in the camp, which will be great even if I must look after my little sister. My parents will probably organize big barbecues and invite neighbours after spending the day on the beach - they like meeting new people. We will go and visit Mount Saint Michael; we will also go to some nice “crêperies” or eat the famous Sanchez ice creams!! I hope the weather will be nice, because in Brittany, you never know!! Some days were quite cold and rainy last year, but I don’t mind because it will be the holidays!!!
