WHAT I DO?

In the morning I went to the fountains to brought water for my grandmother with a battel because my grandmother love's this water.


I go by bike to the next village  with my friends and with my mother and sometimes with my father.


 



After I eat and then I go to the house of my friends and we are going to play in the front wall, we are going to skate, play football, ping-pong, basketball, tennis, bicycle...





 At the night I go with my friends to the square and we play to many things until one in the morning.
