I spent this winter vacation in the city. The holidays began a few days before the New Year, and it seemed to me that they would go on for a very long time. Before the New Year, a lot of snow fell, which gave winter, especially, a fabulous view. New Year we met at home with the whole family. And although I no longer believe in fairy tales, I wanted some kind of miracle or magic. And here it happened!Rather, it was a strange accident. On the day when, on the eve of the holiday, my mother was fussing around in the kitchen for a long time, while my father and I were decorating the tree, the doorbell suddenly rang. We waited for my grandparents, and so I ran to open the door. I looked into the peephole and did not believe my eyes. Behind the door stood a real Santa Claus in a red coat and with a huge beard, and next to the Snow Maiden with a blond scythe. Why I immediately thought it was real, because the last time it was an unsuccessfully disguised dad. Everything was easier than it could be. Father Frost and Snow Maiden were actors who mistaken the apartment, but I still got the magic candy.The first January days of winter holidays turned out to be sunny and very frosty. These days it was great to walk outside and play various winter games-fun. True, it was not possible to make a snowman, because in such frost the snow was loose and not sticky at all. After such cheerful walks, especially, it was nice to be at home, where a hot mother's dinner was waiting for me. In the evenings, my dad and I read books and played board games, which turned out to be much more interesting than a computer.On one of the days of the winter holidays, we all visited the circus. To be honest, I did not really like it, because I felt sorry for the animals. The next day together with my mother they went to the theater for a play for schoolchildren, it turned out to be very interesting and quite boring. So I spent the winter holidays, which though not as long as summer, but rich and interesting. So now it remains to be patient and wait for spring and summer.
