Video transcript

The picture of the boat reminds me of when I went to Paris with the school. We had to go on the ferry from Dover to France. When we were on the boat it was night time and as we got nearer to France from the top deck of the ferry you could see the lights on the horizon. The water was black and choppy and there were lots of people on the top deck watching the water as we travelled. I was a bit nervous at first before we go on the boat because I’d never been on a boat before. Six hours on a bus watching boring movies. After that two hours on a ferry looking in the shop even though I couldn’t buy anything. Back on the bus for two hours. Then stayed in a Disneyland hotel. We ran about when we were supposed to be in our rooms and went in other people’s rooms. Went in the Disneyland park for a day, then back on the bus for two hours. Back on the ferry for another two hours then back on the bus for six hours in my jamas, then finally arrive home.
