The Christmas tree is always a top sale for Christmas in France!

Six million Christmas trees were sold last year. The Christmas trees come from specific plantings. This disrupts ecology because producers use pesticides. But every other year, they plant cereals to avoid soil acidity. A producer uses sheep to eat grass around trees. Any way natural trees are less polluting than artificial ones that are not recyclable and imported from China.

My trip to England

This summer holiday, I went to England with my parents. We took the boat to go there. We went to the Brighton pier. I took a ghost train in the fun fair of the Brighton pier. I was afraid. I saw Stonehenge too. That's a beautiful place. I went to the village of Lacock, there is an abbey where they did some scenes of the Harry Potter movie !! Then we went to Stratford-upon-Avon to visit Shakespeare and his family's houses. We went to Birmingham because we went to see my mum's penfriend. For my birthday we went to a shopping day, we visited an aquarium and took a boat to go on canals. During the night, there was a riot ! I also visited Oxford and Cambridge.
I chose this subject because these were my best holidays !
