I always look forward to my summer holiday. It's great to get away from cold, rainy London and chill out with my friends. Last year we went to Portugal. We set off very early in the morning. My friend's dad dropped us off at the airport and we queued up at the check-in desk for a long time. The flight was very late, but the plane finally took off at 10.30. When we got off the plane, we felt the hot sun and we were very happy. We checked into our hotel, unpacked our bags and went to the beach. The sky was blue and the sea was beautiful. I love holidays!
