Summer Holidays

In summer holidays I went to Cerdanyola del Vallés with my family. We went there because a friend of my mother went there. He lived a lot of years in Japan with his Japanese wife.

My mother and his friend guided us around the city. It's bigger than Balaguer. We went to eat at Hockey. I was very excited because I met a Japanese person!

In the end, we were very tired because Cerdanyola is very big, but we all felt happy because we laughed a lot.
