Carol’s Diary

19 December

I am so excited about the Christmas holiday! My family is going to Australia to have a warm Christmas this year. It will be my first time to ride on a plane! We will leave London three days later.

21 December

Mum and I went to a department store to buy swimsuits today because we will go to the Gold Coast in Australia. I chose a swimsuit with pink flowers on it.

23 December

I am in Australia! I stayed on the plane for the whole day yesterday. It was a long flight, but I was not bored. I watched a cartoon on the plane. The view out of the window was lovely too. I have never seen clouds that close!

25 December

Today I saw Santa Claus on the beach. He was sweating! He shook hands with me and gave me a candy in the shape of a stick. At night, we went to Aunt Lily’s house. She taught me to bake a pie. Mum and Dad said it was delicious!
