See an illustrative response

Last summer, I went to a small seaside town with my cousin. We stayed in a flat near the beach for four days. On the first day, we swam and ate lunch beside the sea. The next morning, we visited an old castle. Unfortunately, I left my hat on the bus. My cousin lent me hers until I bought another one. In the evenings, we cooked together and played cards. I felt relaxed at the end of the holiday and wanted to stay longer.
