I don’t usually like shopping. In fact, I hardly ever go shopping, but last week
I went on a shopping trip with my mum and my sister. I enjoyed it because
we went to London! We don’t often go to London so I was excited! We went
to Oxford Street. It’s a very busy street with a lot of shops. There aren’t any
food shops, but there are a lot of department stores and clothes shops. First,
we had a drink in an American coffee shop. It was cool! When my mum and
sister went to their favourite clothes shops, I found a sports shop and an
enormous games shop, so I was happy! At lunchtime, we ate our sandwiches
in a park and in the afternoon, we went to a famous cinema in the centre of
London to see a new film. It was a great day out.
