Annie´s Day

My name is Annie and this is what I normally do. I love to walk on the mountains. During the week, I wake up early
and go for a small walk on the mountain. I usually go with my father or my brother. We like to get some fresh air
before start our day. We live in the country far away from the city. We think that our country life is wonderful because
we are away from noise and pollution of the city. We often walk about one half hour and then return to our home.
I always take my bus after our walk and at about 8.30 a.m and arrive at school at 9.00 a.m. My father takes his car
and goes to town to work. He works at a veterenary clinic. He is a vet and loves to help animals. We have three dogs
and two cats. On the week end we wake up early and go for a hike on the mountain. It is so nice to smell the fresh
air and see wild animals. We stay there for about three hours and bring our lunch with us. As you can see my family
loves nature
