Travelling by car, train, plane

I like to travel by car. It is interesting, because you can see many things in a short time. When we go by car, we don’t take tickets too, we put all things we need in a car. We don’t carry them.

It is comfortable to travel by plane. When I travel by plane, I don’t spend a lot of time going from one place to another. But it is difficult  to buy tickets for the plane. That's why we take our tickets beforehand

I like to fly. If I travel by train or by plane my friends see me off at the railway station or in the airport. Sometimes we go to the seaside for a few days


As usual the weather is fine. It is warm, we can swim. It is pleasure to watch white ships. I think that travelling is a very useful thing for us and I enjoy all kinds of traveling very much.

I like to travel by sea. Some years ago we took a cruise along the Black Sea coast, from Sochi to Sukhumi on board the liner “Russia”. We came to Sochi by train. Then we went to the seaport and saw our ship


The weather was fine. After breakfast we spent a lot of time on the deck sitting in deck chair or standing at the rain watching the ship, passing not far from our ship. It was pleasant to watch the waves
