horror My holiday Last summer, I went on holiday with my family. We went to Mull, in the Hebrides. The Hebrides are the islands off the west coast of Scotland. The island of Mull is very beautiful and people go there to hike (walk) and to see the wildlife sharks, whales and sea eagles. We had a wonderful timel We took a boat trip and saw three whales and many seals. We climbed some big hills and we visited an old castle. We ate some wonderful meals, of many nationalities, but an Italian restaurant was the best! On a visit to the capital Tobermory, we spotted the famous Tobermory cat - a beautiful ginger tom cat who has his own facebook page. He came up to me and I tickled his ears. I had my photograph taken with him. On our last day, we went hill-walking, hoping to see an eagle. We walked slowly along a narrow path on a hilltop. Suddenly, my dad shouted, Look up, an eaglet A huge bird flew directly over our heads. I looked up, then disasterl I slipped on some mud and fell down. I could not get up. My leg hurt so much! Luckily, we had our mobiles, My dad rang for an ambulance, but of course, an ambulance could not reach us. Twenty minutes later, we heard a whirring noise. A helicopter camel It picked us up and took me to hospital on the mainland. My leg was broken. The doctor put a plaster cast on it. I wore the cast for six weeks.

My ideal holiday would be to go to a tropical island with my partner. We would go in the summer when the weather is hot and sunny. We would stay in a beachfront resort and spend our days swimming in the clear blue water, lounging on the beach, and exploring the island's natural beauty. In the evenings, we would dine on fresh seafood and local cuisine, and enjoy live music and entertainment. It would be a relaxing and romantic getaway.
