snorkelling. Cancún Marine Park is one of the most visited stretches of water in the world. It

of us already had some. But others discovered their hidden talents. The first thing
that we needed to do was write our script. It was pretty hard for some of us and
some even decided to use that time to discuss about other stuff. Because of
that the show was almost cancelled. 38
After the June Holiday we all came back motivated as ever and started
working very hard. We started to do proper rehearsals and each one was better
than the other. Then came the day of the final rehearsal. We all brought our
stuff and costumes. And we started to work. At the beginning nobody came to
watch but then people from activity groups came to assist in the rehearsals.
They thought we were great. 39 A few days later came the D-day and
it was a success. More than sixty people attended our show including teachers,
parents and other children. Personally, I felt great. 40 All in all, we had
an amazing experience.

Accept any relevant / acceptable answers.
Firash,
I am glad to be of help. I think it is good that you pick up a sport because
you are an outdoor person. You will love the adrenalin rush. Maybe you can
consider learning to skateboard. It is quite easy to learn. You also would not
need a lot of equipment, just safety gear and a skateboard. I can teach you
how to skateboard. I don’t think you will enjoy learning to play an instrument.
