Summer Holidays in England

With July coming, when some exams finish, the summer holidays begin. Boys and girls will have two months to rest.
The summer holidays are the best time of the year for most children. The weather is usually good, so that they can spend most of their time in swimming, camping or traveling with their parents.
Of course, the most enjoyable place is the seaside. Some children are lucky enough to live near the sea. They enjoy exceptional advantages. As for those who live far from the sea, their parents will also take them to the seaside for the holidays, for they know that a week or two at a seaside town during the summer holidays is their children’s eager hope. In England not only the rich but also factory workers or bus drivers can take their children to seaside for their holidays. In fact, during August holiday most towns are empty.
Why do children like spending their summer holidays at seaside? It is because they like the sand, the sun, the cool wind and the salt water there more than anything else. Of course there are lots of new things to see, nice things to eat, and exciting things to do, but it is the feeling of sand under one’s feet, of cool wind and salt water on one’s feet, and of the warm sun on one’s back the make the seaside what it is.
