I had a great day! I 1 woke up at 8 o’clock and the sky was blue. I met Larry and George at the port 2 at nine and we left for Little Island. The sea was calm and the trip only took 3 an hour (the/a/an). When we arrived, we went 4 swimming and then we had a picnic on a beach.
5 In the afternoon we went for a walk around the island. We found an empty house on the top of the hill. There were 6 a lot of strange paintings on the walls of the house. It was cool! When we came out of the house, the sky was grey and then it started to rain. We decided to leave the island but 7 then the sea became very rough. The boat moved up and down and from side to side. We 8 were afraid but it was also fun. It 9 took us two hours to get back but we arrived safely. When I got home, mum was very 10 worried but I told her that I had had a really lovely day!
