My wife and I spent two weeks in England last year. We went there in the autumn. We think it is the best 1 to visit England. The weather is 2 quite good and there aren't 3 visitors in October.
We stayed in a small hotel in the West End. It was convenient 4 we did most of our sightseeing on foot. Taxis were too 5 . We couldn't understand the bus routes, and my wife didn't like traveling on the underground. She said it made her feel 6 in.
We went to look at the places that all visitors see. We saw Buckingham Palace, the National Gallery and Piccadilly Circus. We 7 shopping in Oxford Street and spent too much money. What we liked most, 8 , was going to the theater. We don't have the 9 to see such wonderful plays at 10 . A lot of people say English food is very bad. We didn't think 11 . It's 12 that most of the restaurants are French or Italian or Chinese, but we had some very good meals.
In fact, we enjoyed our holiday 13 much that we have already booked again for this year. We are going to take our 14 , for I am 15 we'll need them sometimes.
