VII Read Kate’s diary page below and complete the sentences.

Dear Diary,
It's been a week since I moved here to Krakow and I'm trying to get used to my new life. I spent
the first days walking around the city seeing the sights. Our flat is lovely, but the weather is so
nice that I enjoy spending my time outdoors. It's warm and sunny at the moment, but the
people who live here say that in the winter things are different. I really can't wait for the
temperature to drop and the city to be covered in snow. Today my parents and I have organised
a day trip to the Old Town. We're going to the Wawel Royal Castle, which used to be home to
kings and queens in the past but now it's a museum. I'm really excited.
