only about one hour. In Sisal, we wenttothe beautiful beach. We ate fish at a wonderful a Wr

Last weekend was awful! I went to New York because my mom and dad live there. I
wanted to go to a concert and eat at a couple of good restaurants. But the weather
was really bad-it rained, and it was so windy! There were no taxis, so we stayed in
my parents' apartment and cooked and ate. The food was good, but it wasn't what
we wanted. We watched old movies on TV. We didn't go to a concert. Next time, my
parents are coming to Jamaica. It's always sunny here!

Clifford Canada
Well , I actually had a good time. My friends came to visit me on Friday, and we went
out to eat at a terrific restaurant. On Saturday, I went for a wa lk alone in the park, and
that evening, I went dancing at a real ly nice nightclub with my girlfriend . (We took
the picture at the nightclub.) We stayed out real ly late-so late that we ate breakfast
when we left the nightclub. Sunday? On Sunday, I slept all day.
