Read this part finished story and write your own ending:

The alarm went off at 5 a.m.

John, aged 5, yawned and rubbed his eyes. He smiled from ear to ear when he realised what day it was. HOLIDAY!

In the room next door his 4 year old sister Ashran slept on. She didn't hear her alarm. "Wake up!" "You lazy bones!" John shouted in her ear. "Our holiday starts today." She heard that all right! For once she didn't mind her brother pulling the duvet off.

Their parents, Bill and Denise, had been up already for 2 hours, finishing the packing and making sure they had their tickets for the flight, passport and money. Bill put them in a special wallet on a ledge by the front door.

Ashran and her brother chattered excitedly all the way to the airport. This was their first flight and their first holiday overseas. How happy and thrilled they looked.

Half an hour later though their faces told a different story.

"Tickets please," said the lady behind the reception desk.

Bill took out his wallet. The tickets were there all right, so was the money. But no passports!

"What have I done?" he cried. "No passports means no holiday."

John and Ashran burst into tears......

....WHAT HAPPENED NEXT?

Yolande said that she loved holidays. She liked going to the seaside to such places as Bournemouth and Brighton. Her brother, Simon, wasn't so keen. He liked to go to Longleat Safari Park, the Tower of London and Alton Towers. What do you like to do?
