·       unique

·       wonderful, well-organized


My holidays were joyful because I met a lot of new people. They were interesting to talk to.

 

My holidays were boring because the weather was awful and I was at home during the whole week. They also were lazy because I was very tired from hard work at the lyceum and I didn’t want to do anything except sleeping, eating and watching films.

 

My holidays were useless because I just stayed at home for the whole day. My days were empty because there were no plans or special occasions.

 

My holidays were joyful because I practically lived in cinemas. However, they also were extremely lazy as I did nothing useful.

 

My holidays were lazy, I was sleeping almost all the time. The closer it came to the end of the holidays, the faster time went.

 

My holidays were amazing and great in spite of the fact that I was doing my TOK essay during the whole week. I was with my mom at her job during this week. We had a nice time together. At the end of the week I met my classmate and my mood changed.

 



During the autumn holidays i had a great opportunity to visit fabulous Vienna and feel the atmosphere of upcoming Christmas. Actually, most of the time i spent on shopping and had only 2 days out of seven on museums and cultural part. In the photos you can see the Kunsthistorisches museum which is the most famous museum there. It is an arts and history museum. In my opinion, it would be great for geologists to go there because there are lots of minerals and chemical elements. You can also find there lots of exhibits of dinosaurs and predatory fishes. It would be cognitive for children as there is a scientific hall where you can watch videos about the creation of the Earth, to send meteorites on Earth choosing your own distance and other entertaining stuff.

The weather was great when i was there comparing to severe Russian autumn. In two other photos you can see some Austrian decorations in the centre of the city and a wonderful shop for Christmas where you can find and buy the best gifts for you relatives and friends and i swear that you won't disappoint them.
To conclude, Vienna is a fascinating and lively city full of foreigners and tourists. It is not surprising at all that this city bears the title of metropolis. It is a great option both for cultural enlightenment and shopping. If you are an obssessed traveler, it is definitely a must have.
 

The holidays were useful for me as I both discovered new talents in myself and learned new things.

 

My holidays were not great because I didn’t do anything exciting. They were quite busy because of some tasks I did like the individual oral commentary.

 

I spent a great time with my family during this autumn vacation. It was the loveliest and calmest time I’ve ever had during the holidays. We cooked together, watched films and went for walks.

Our holidays were boring because the whole time we were staying at home doing our homework. They weren’t amazing as the weather left much to be desired.

Amazing is the right adjective for describing my autumn holidays. I had a fantastic opportunity to visit my grandfather and uncles, whom I haven't seen for ten years. I was extremely glad to meet them again and we had a great time together.
 
 
 
Besides that, me and my family got a chance to enjoy the magnificence of our capital, Moscow, with all its marvelous architecture, hospitability and fuss of the citizens. Surprisingly, my siblings loved the city as well. They were astonished by its beauty, its sights, such as planetarium, the Red Square and, of course, the Central Toy Shop
