Jurate's holiday
I love holidays! Usually I have two months of holiday in the summer. One month is unpaid [anpeid] (nemokamas). On my holiday I love to get up late, to do nothing, to spend time on the Internet, to go to my garden and to cycle. This summer I had my holiday in July and in August.
In July, I stayed at home. Almost every day I cycled to my garden. In the garden I got a lot of fresh air and sun. There is also a cottage in our garden and somtimes I had a nap [e ne:p] (to have a nap - prigulti pogulio) in this cottage. One weekend I went to my cousin's. My cousin lives in the country together with her husband and her children. At my cousin's I had a lot of nice food because she loves cooking.
In August I went to the seaside. I stayed at the seaside town of Palanga for three days. I rented a room in a hotel with my two friends from Pasvalys. Every morning I walked to the beach. There were red flags on the beach. They warned [uo:/r/nd] (perspėjo; to warn [uo/r/n - perspėti) people not to swim in the sea because the waves [ueivz] (bangos) were big and dangerous. I went for long walks by the sea. I didn't sunbathe a lot because the weather was chilly [čili] (šaltokas) and windy [uindi] (vėjuotas). I was lucky [laki] (man pasisekė; to be lucky - pasisekti) it didn't rain!
At the end of my summer holiday I bought an Apple computer! It was my dream. I'm happy with my computer. It is expensive but fast and comfortable to use.

Last summer I was next to the seaside for three days. I went there with my family and friends. We played voleyball,sunbathed in a beach and swam in the sea .One day we went to the japanese garden near _ city called Palanga.It was sunny and warm days.We had a beautiful time.

Agne's holiday
I really love holidays! Usually I have three weeks of holiday in the summer but these holidays were different. After two weeks I was canceled from my holidays because it appeared a lot of new works in my job. I was sad for that but fortunately I could have enjoyed short holidays before.
This summer I had my holiday in August. I went on holiday to Ventspilis in Latvia. I went with my mother. We stayed in the High School for five days.
Every day we went to the sea. Sometimes we visited different parks or different places. Once we visited South Pier. We met a lot of tourists. On Saturday morning city celebrated his birthday. It was wery beautiful, unforgettable feast.
