On Monday I'm going on vacations. I normally go on vacations in March or April, to be more precise
at Easter. This year I'm going to Mexico arriving on April 4th. The last time I was in Mexico was in
2009. Most people take their holidays in Summer but I don't mind taking mine in Spring. So this
weekend, I´m just going to take it easy. Usually at the weekend, I would go out for a jog in the
morning, followed by eating out in the evening and maybe go out with some friends at night. This
Saturday however, will be a quite one. On Monday morning I have to be at the airport at 6am. So I will
leave my passport on my bedside locker and my luggage at the front door....ready to go! In a moment I
´ll call my brother because we haven´t spoken in ages. Every Tuesday we used to play golf but he has
moved to a different city since. Last Tuesday I was at work and next Tuesday I´ll be sitting on my sun
lounger in my hotel at the edge of the beach....I'm actually arriving on my birthday...I can´t wait!
