General English 1, TASK - Video: Having fun on holidays

Instructions
In this activity you have to:

1. Read some activities people in Colombia are doing right now on their holidays:
Amelia
“Hey there! My name is Amelia and I am 60 years old; I am
from Bogotá. My children are on holidays from their jobs,
and we all decided to stay in the city to have some culture
time. Today, we are visiting one important and beautiful
museum. My son and her wife are trying to guess which of
the pictures belong to Colombian artists, my husband is
showing our granddaughter his favorite artistic works, and
my daughter and I are choosing our favorite impressionism
pictures. Later, we will have something to eat, probably
some muffins. In a city like Bogotá, with all the cultural
options we have, it’s great to have this kind of plans".
Solangel
“Hi! How are you? I am Solangel and I’m 17 years old; I am
from Putumayo. My family and I are having a wonderful
time in San Andrés; this is my first time in the beach and I
love it! In this moment, my parents are eating watermelon,
my sister is talking with a handsome boy and my brothers
are playing with a huge ball in the beach. I am swimming in
the sea, but very close to the beach, because I am learning.
Everyone should visit this island, it is just a paradise”.

(use “I”) and 3 activities they are doing (use “he”, “she”, “they” and “we”).
