Last year we went to Athens on _______. We chose the city


because my kids were studying the ancient Greeks in their history
class at ______, and they wanted to go sightseeing to learn more.
We all enjoyed the holiday a lot – there were so many things to see,
especially at the main _____________! The only problem we
had was when we arrived. We couldn’t read the signs because we
don’t really know the Greek alphabet, so we got lost on the way
from the airport to the city centre. We were all very tired by the
time we arrived at the hotel!

We’ve just come back from a lovely holiday. We did all the usual

swimming costumes in the suitcase. We had forgotten them at
_______! So, we had to go shopping to buy some new ones. How
silly! Anyway, we had an amazing time, and we really enjoyed the

might even go back next year!
