Travel Back from holidayHow was your holiday? Com'è andata la tua vacanza?It was fantastic. È stata stupenda.I had a really good time. Mi sono divertita davvero tanto.We had a lousy time. Non ci siamo divertiti per niente.It didn't stop raining all week. Non ha mai smesso di piovere per tutta la settimana.You've certainly caught the sun! Certo che hai preso un po' di sole!We had beautiful weather all week. Abbiamo avuto un tempo bellissimo per tutta la settimana.It snowed quite heavily on Tuesday. Ha nevicato piuttosto forte martedì.It worked out cheaper than staying in a hotel, seeing as there were six of us. È costato meno che stare in albergo, visto che eravamo in sei.Was the holiday self-catering? La vacanza era in appartamento con uso cucina?We cooked in the apartment most nights and went out a couple of times for dinner. Abbiamo fatto da mangiare in appartamento quasi ogni sera e siamo usciti a cena un paio di volte.We spent most of the time relaxing on the beach. Abbiamo trascorso la maggior parte del tempo rilassandoci in spiaggia.There wasn't much time for sightseeing. Non c'è stato molto tempo per fare giri turistici.I'm going on a diet as soon as I get back home. Mi metto a dieta appena arrivo a casa. -
