The picture shows a family walking around a town. Judging by the pavement the kind of buildings, their colour and the archiecture, it looks like it’s the historic part of the town. There’s a big clock in the foreground and I can see it’s 1:35pm. There’s a line of street lights. In the background there’s a big tree, so maybe there’s a park over there and the family is going to the park to spend some time in the afternoon. I really like this kind of towns, with small buildings and antique architecture. because it’s like travelling to the past.

I don’t really do many activities with my family now, but I used to play a lot with them when I was young. We used to play a video game called “tanks”, as well as a few board games like Monopoly, scrabble and Rumikub. I loved playing Monopoly, it was my favourite board game! My parents were not big fans of it, though.
