Holidays Abroad
People in Britain like holidays. They used to spend their summer holiday at British resorts. But nowadays they prefer to go abroad.
Students have the opportunity to travel abroad in school or student groups.
Sometimes they go on a day trip across the Channel to France, and some may go swimming in Spain in summer or skiing in Italy in winter. A lot of families choose a camping holiday. It is the cheapest and easiest kind of vacation for a family with children.
Spain is a popular holiday country with the British, either in summer or in winter. Many families try to have a winter holiday abroad, because they want to escape the bad British weather. It's said that it costs them more to stay in Britain and pay heating bills than to have a holiday in Spain.
