There are four seasons in a year: winter, spring, summer and autumn. All seasons are good in their own way. Winter, for example, is full of celebrations, presents and snow. Spring is the time of nature awakening and flower blooming. Autumn can be rainy and yet beautiful, full of multi-coloured leaves.
However, my favourite season is summer. I choose summer not only because my birthday is in June, but also because it's the time of holidays. Summer is the season when the sun shines brightly, the sky is rarely cloudy and the water in the sea becomes warm enough to swim. Even if it becomes too hot, you can always go for a walk in the shady woods. I also like summer because there are many berries, fruit and vegetables, not to mention numerous flowers on the fields. Among them roses, dandelions, daisies, and other flowers. Sometimes the air in summer becomes stuffy, but occasional thunderstorms bring relief. After the thunderstorms the air becomes remarkably fresh and very often we can see the rainbow in the sky.
Summer is also the time when I and my family go on holiday to the seaside. It's a wonderful time, when we can have a rest from the intense academic year and relax. I think all children love summer because of long school holidays and I'm no exception. I also enjoy my free time, playing with my friends, watching TV, and doing other fun activities. Nevertheless, I don't forget to do some useful reading from time to time.
"Divo Ostrov" is located in Primorsky Victory Park on Krestovsky Island, two minutes from the metro. On its premises you can find everything that an amusement park should have. There are rides for the very young and those who love a thrill. The further you get into the park, the scarier the rides get. At first you might find a rocket that flies over the trees quite thrilling but then you'll see a giant catapult that launches the brave into the sky. Perhaps the most treacherous attraction is Booster, which lurks in the back of the pond. The Booster looks like a giant pendulum arrow that spins around its axis. The sensation of free falling directly into the pond and momentarily soaring 50 metres above the ground is sure to leave nobody indifferent. Visitors with children will appreciate the family rides, and there is a special play area for the little ones, with rubber surfacing, different slides and shapes. On weekends, there are animators who play with the kids and organise real parties for them. Stop for a snack at an outdoor cafe or one of the refreshment stands (candy apples, popcorn, hot dogs) and soft drinks (mulled wine, morsels). The park is adorned with colourful figures of fairy tale characters, and there's even a life-sized Batman car. Squirrels which can be found in the park at every step will amaze the visitors.
