My last summer

Hi, as you know, my name is Àlex and now I'm going to talk about my last summer holidays.

During my holidays I stayed in Iceland, Banyoles and l'Estartit.

My family and I travelled to Iceland during st. John's night. When we arrived to Keflavík we rent a motorhome and we slept. The next morning we visited Pingvellir, the place where old Icelandic celebrated their parlament. Also Pingvellir is the place where European and American plates tectonics shocked. Then we visited Geysir, a place where there are some geisers that expel 10 meters high hot water every 10 minutes. Later we went to Gullfos (The Gold waterfall), a huge waterfall that is like the Niagara falls. We slept near there and the next day we went to Seljandofoss and Skogafoss, two waterfalls. The next day we went to Vík, a beautiful sea city where there are a lot of puffins and artic terns. Then we went to Jökulsalsárson, a lake where ice from Vatnajökull ( the biggest glacier of Europe) flows and we sailed between the icebergs. Then, in the evening we did a trip to Vatnajökull because I wanted to step on the biggest glacier.

We visited Höfn where we ate lobster because it was the day of the lobster.

The next day we went to Myvatn and we took a bath on a hotspring and on a blue lagoon. Then we went to Husavík to see whales and we had a bath on a public outdoor pool which was warm. The last day we went to Reykjavik and we visited the cathedral.

The rest of July I stayed in Banyoles doing the usual summer things.

In August I went to l'Estartit and I relaxed. I went to the beach every day to sunbathe, I had lunch at 5 o'clock or played cards.

In conclusion, I think that this summer was very relaxing and it was great, But it wasn't long enough.
