Dear Dima,

My winter holidays were very nice. They lasted 2 weeks.      

First I celebrated the New Year's Day. On the 31st of December we cleaned our flat and  decorated a Christmas tree. In the evening we sat at table and had a holiday dinner, watched TV. At 12 o'clock we watched fireworks.

On the 1st of January we slept till 12 o'clock and ate all the tasty things. In the afternoon we visited our relatives and gave them presents.

The weather was good and every day I went skating with my friends. Every day I slept till 11 o'clock. In the evening I watched TV or played computer games. And of course I read books and did Maths.

Sometimes we went to the cinema. I liked the film "Hobbit".

I liked my winter holidays very much.

Write me soon,

Vladislav

Они отправляют это к лондонцам(???) каждый год и лондонцы(???) украшают рождественское дерево. Вечером до Рождества люди любят приходить на Трафальгальскую площадь смотреть на дерево. Накануне Рождества улицы Лондона украшаются тоже. Магазины очень заняты в Рождество. Люди хотят купить подарки для их семьи и друзей (для самых близких и самых дорогих). И они покупают много еды и напитков для всех рождественских вечеринок. Люди открывают свои подарки рождественским утром и они все счастливы тем, что им подарили.
