THE MYSTERY OF THE MOUNTAINS

My name is Clara and I am twelve years old. I am from Barcelona, Spain.
I am going to explain my mysterious holidays last year.
I went to a hotel called Hotel Lake. I could see those mountains around the hotel, the Funny Mountains. Between the mountains we could find the hotel and a lake, the Beautiful Lake.
The first night my friends and I went outside the hotel. We observed the stars and the landscape. It was very beautiful.
We heard some sounds as if somebody was walking, but there were only my friends. Oh dear! In front of us, there were a lot of witches. They were very ugly. They were flying on their brooms. They were tall and slim. They were wearing black dresses, long and black hats, striped socks and brown boots.
We entered the hotel. We were very scared.
The next day I talked to the director of the hotel. He said: “The witches only come here at night. Don’t go outside the hotel during that time because it is very dangerous!”
But we went outside. The ugly witches appeared in front of us. They seemed to be real. Oh dear! I discovered the truth. There exists a man who uses the forces of the witches to scare people.
We talked to the man. He said: “My name is John. I scare people because I don’t like this hotel with all these houses, buildings, shops…
We came to an agreement. He would stop scaring people if the buildings were dismantled, in order to preserve the nature.
The last day we were swimming in the lake. It was very funny. Then we said: “Good bye witches and mountains. Hello city!”
