Weekend

Sunday is a rather quiet day everywhere in cities and towns. The factories and offices are closed. So the people don't go to their work. They rest on this day. The children don't go to schools and they have plenty of time to play outdoors.

There are plenty of ways to have a good time on your day off indoors as well as outdoors in our country.

A very popular activity in many homes today is watching television. In large cities many different kinds of programs are available. Many of the Ukrainians like music very much. They collect records of classical and modern music and like to spend time listening to music. Other people give small parties on weekends or invite friends for an evening. Outside the home there are really great opportunities for an active rest. All the cities and towns have public parks, museums, concert halls and libraries. As cinema is very popular nowadays every city and town has several cinema-theatres. There is always a good opportunity to see an interesting film. You can also go to a theatre or visit some places of historical interest. There is really a great opportunity to have a very active, interesting and busy weekend in any place you live.

As to me I like to spend my weekends outdoors. It was Saturday yesterday and I was certainly going to spend my weekend out in the country. However the weather was gloomy yesterday. There were heavy dark clouds in the sky and cold wind was blowing from the north-west. It was raining at times. I like to sleep under the stars but certainly not when it is raining. So, I was staying at home all the Saturday evening and my friend who lives next door to me was with me. We were playing chess and then we were watching TV. The program was very interesting. A new TV play was on.
