Summer is coming and the Barkers are thinking about their holidays. Harry and Margaret Barker would like to go to Blackpool, to the sea, or to the Lake District. But the children want to go to France: they would like to visit Paris and to see Disneyland

Wonderful holidays Wonderful holidays abroadabroad

Last year John and Sally had wonderful holidays abroad too. They visited Russia and traveled to Moscow, the capital of the country, and then to St. Petersburg. In Moscow they lived at the Smirnovs’ place but in St. Petersburg they had a room in a hotel. They loved Moscow and they enjoyed St. Petersburg very much.
