What happened?

Summer of 2014
Last year, my family and I went to pachuca city and we arrived at my
brother's house in a little town located right in front of the . The name of the
town is San Nicols. It's a cold place during the day and colder at midnight. My
brother and his family were very happy and they gave us a warm welcome. The
first night, my sister began to cook something for dinner. My sister in law asked
us to bring coats because was very cold. I told her that I brought one jacket for
everyone. We usually got up at 7 o'clock in the morning during our stay.
The next day, we rented a car. I got a very cheap rate and I paid 300
pesos per day for it. We decided to go to a fantastic place that is called
Chalma. When we got there, I bought four pieces of flower crowns because in
Chalma is a tradition to wear them, my niece and my nephew took us some
pictures including the beautiful environment of the place. Then, we walked
through the craft shops until we got to the church. This church was built long
time ago between 1601 and 1610 by Fray Diego de Velzquez. It is a church
with a neoclassical architecture. In the same place, we admired a beautiful
ahuehuete tree that was next to a lake. We really enjoyed Chalma, everybody
had a good time.
My brother and my sister in law couldn't come with us because they had
to work. My brother gets up at 5 o'clock in the morning. He works from 5:30 am
to 6:00 pm. He only had chance to join us on Saturday because it was his day
off.
Finally, in the afternoon, we went to Lagunas de Zempoala that was not
very far from Chalma. When we got there, we took a tour of horseback riding of
30 minutes. We couldn't take a longer tour because we didn't have much time,
however my sister enjoyed it a lot. it was almost evening, it was very late, so
we decided to go back home. I drove about three hours. Suddenly, on the way
back.
