Seasonal

The first day of the summer is on June 20th and I am glad to write about summer in Canada. Whenever you talk about the summer, it gives you a feeling of freedom and peace, and peace is the goal of everyone’s life.

Summer in Canada is more special because it is a very short period. It starts on June 20th and ends on September 21st which means it lasts 3 months only. That’s why Canadians don’t want to miss the summer and enjoy it. Even students can get 2 – 3 months summer vacation.

Despite it’s my first summer in Canada, I am really going to enjoy experiencing it because the weather is wonderful and everywhere is green. The good thing is that you can enjoy the night by going sightseeing downtown.

My favorite hobbies are outdoor swimming and barbequing, so summer gives me this chance to have them both together. While in Canada having a barbeque in parks is sometimes not allowed, fortunately, I have a wide backyard which I can have a barbeque. Summer is good but some insects and mosquitos make it challenging, so you must be prepared and spray insect repellent before setting up a party outdoors.

I hope I will be able to go to Wonderland this summer, as it’s not available in other seasons.
