MY SUMMER


Summer is usually a season to travel and visit places. But we also have enough time to relax and have fun with our friends. Something I love about summer is the possibility to forget the daily routine and do whatever we want.

When classes at school ended, I went a couple of days to the beach with my friends. We were very lucky because despite the usual weather in the north, we were able to sunbathe on the beach, as we had really good weather.
The month of July I went to a summer camp with the Scouts. We went to a little village called: “Duruelo de la sierra”. The first day we set up the tents, and the two following days we did activities about nature, orientation, camouflage and we played games to practice and improve some new skills.
Then the entire group except little children went four days on hiking. We took anything we might need during those days that we were going to be walking through the forest; such as food, clothes and tents to sleep. We went to the top of two well-known mountains; the” Urbión” and the “peak three provinces”
When the camp finished, we went to work three days to a village near Burgos called: Quintanilla Caberrojas. There, we repaired a fountain and we also painted it, we cleaned a river and the village’s streets; and we cleaned the church.
When we finished we went to river Ebro to do rafting.
In August I have stayed in Burgos going to different festivities of the villages around Burgos.
I have enjoyed the summer because I have had time to do everything.
