travelling by sea is very popular. large ships and small river boats can visit foreign countries and different places of interest within their own country.
as for me, i prefer travelling by car. i think it's very convenient. you needn't reserve tour tickets. you needn't carry heavy suitcases. you can stop wherever you wish, and spend at any place as much time as you like.
every year my friend and i go somewhere to the south for holidays. the black sea is one of the most wonderful places which attracts holiday-makers all over the world. there are many rest-homes, sanatoriums and tourist camps there.
but it is also possible to rent a room or a furnished house for a couple of weeks there. sometimes, we can place ourselves in a tent on the sea shore enjoying fresh air and the sun all day long.
as a rule, i make new friends there. in the day-time we play volley-ball, tennis, swim in the warm water of the sea and sunbathe. in the evening.
i like to sit on the beach watching the sea and enjoying the sunset. i'm fond of mountaineering. so i do a lot of climbing together with my friends. time passes quickly and soon we have to make our way back. we return home sunburnt and full of impressions.
i like new year's day, it is my favourite holiday. the 1st of january is a winter holiday and now it is the first day of the new year. peter the first changed the russian calendar in 1699. he made the 31st of december, 1699 the last day of the year. the first of january 1700 became new year's day.
the 1st of january is in the middle of winter. the weather is usually fine and there is a lot of snow everywhere. as the 1st of january is a holiday i don't go to school and my parents don't go to work.
our family prepares for this holiday beforehand. my father buys and brings home a beautiful new year's tree at the end of december. our family has a tradition to buy it. i like to decorate the new year's tree with toys, little coloured lights, sweets and a beautiful star on the top. my mother and grandmother prepare our holiday supper and lay the table. i make a cake. all the members of our family clean the flat before this nice holiday and then each of us try to dress well.
we like to see the new year in at home with our relatives. they come to see us at 11 o'clock in the evening. at 12 o'clock we are sitting at the table and we are glad to see the new year in. we say, "best wishes for the new year! ". i hope that next year will be better than the last one.
the new year's day is always connected with our new hopes and dreams. it is a pleasant moment to get presents on the new year's eve. i usually get many nice useful things from my parents and relatives. my parents put their presents under the new year's tree. we don't go to bed till morning, we watch tv, dance, eat tasty things and make jokes. i enjoy this holiday very much.
