Vacation

Many years ago my family and I went to Veracruz . It was wonderful but we had some inconvenients. The first day we arrived at night and we didn't find a good hotel for hours. The next day we went to the beach but only played in the sand because it was very dirty and the waves were very strong, anyway it was pretty fun, we made some Sand Castles and ate Ice Cream.

The next day the weather was awful, but we can swam in the Hotel's Pool and later we visited the Aquarium and watched a lot of fishes and other sea creatures. The last day we walked around the city and then we ate in a Sea Food Restaurant. Finally, when we wanted go back to Puebla, the car broke down and we stayed in Veracruz one more day.
