Last year,my parents took me on a very special holiday.
My dream was (1) to see (see) some real snow, so during the Christmas holiday, we took our passports and flew over the Pacific to Calgary, Canada.

Then we checked in at the hotel. We could see the ski slope opposite the hotel. We could not wait to get out and ski.
The next day, we put on our ski suits and gloves, took our skis and went outside onto the snow. To tell the (5) truth (true), the first lesson was not (6) a great success. I fell over many times, and I had to hold on to a rope to keep my balance. However, the next day, I only fell over a few times, and I succeeded in (7) doing (do) a few rapid runs. I did much (8) better (well). (9) Although it was very cold, I spent most of my holiday skiing. I had a wonderful time.
