Last winter, I travelled to California with my family for a skiing holiday. I was very excited and, during the flight, I looked through a book about California. In the book, there was a story about Bigfoot. According to legend, Bigfoot was a giant monster that lived in a forest.
When we arrived at our hotel, it was very cold and there was snow everywhere. The next morning, my brother and I wanted to go skiing in the mountains. We skied for a few hours and then decided to take a walk in the forest.
Suddenly, my brother touched me on the shoulder. “Luke, I hear a strange noise coming from the trees,” he said. I turned around slowly, and watched in terror as a strange creature appeared from out of the trees and started moving towards us. “It’s Bigfoot!” I screamed and started running away.
A few seconds later, my brother shouted, “Wait, Luke! It’s not Bigfoot! Look!” I turned around and realised he was right. It was only my dad. When we arrived back at the hotel, we all had some hot chocolate and laughed about my mistake.
