I wake up yesterday morning and I get out of bed. It is a beautiful day. The sun was shining and the wind was blowing. I decide that I would go for a walk. I start by walking down my road. I push open my gate and close it behind me. I walk for miles and miles along a country road. I even visit my aunt. Along the way I pass a young man selling fruit. ‘How much are the apples?’ I ask. ‘£1 for a bag,’ he say. I pay the man and I continue to walk. I eat all of the apples except for one, which I drop on the ground, they are delicious.
After a while I meet another man, this man have a camel. The camel was a special camel, it have no humps. ‘What is his name?’ I ask the man. ‘His name is Humphree,’ say the man.
I walk for a very long time, soon the sun begin to go down. It is beautiful, I love sunsets. I get home at about 12:30. I is very tired, normally I go to bed at 10:00. I put on my pyjamas, rub my hands together and went straight to bed. As soon as my head hit the pillow I fall asleep. That is the best walk of my life, I love it. The next day I call my mother and tell her all about it.
