Reading

Last weekend, my family went camping in the forest. We drove for two hours and arrived at the campsite in the afternoon. My dad put up the big tent while my mum prepared lunch. My brother and I collected wood for the fire. In the evening, we cooked sausages and vegetables on the campfire. It was delicious! We sat around the fire and told stories. My sister played her guitar and we all sang songs together. At night, it was very dark and quiet. We heard owls and other animals. I was a little scared, but I slept well in my sleeping bag.
