I'm going to go on an adventure holiday in
Scotland for a week this summer. I'm going to stay
in a cabin in the Scottish countryside.There are about
50 different activities: from mountain biking to kayaking
in Scottish rivers. My favourite activity is the zip wire. I'm
not going to take summer clothes because it's usually
quite cold in Scotland, but I don't mind! I can't wait.

This summer my family and I are going to

explore Thailand. We're going to stay in a tree
house in the jungle for three days, where we're
going to ride elephants. Then we're going to stay
in a hotel near the beach for a week. I'm going to
swim every day, and we're all going to eat really nice
food. Fantastic!

My friends and I are going to spend two weeks

watching wildlife in Patagonia this summer.
We're going to stay in hostels because it's really
cheap. Patagonia is a beautiful place in the south
of Argentina, with lots of interesting animals. There
are penguins, sea lions, even killer whales. I'm going to
take my camera, of course, but we aren't going to take
our phones. When I get back, my dad's going to build a
web page and I'm going to put the best photos on it.
