Сегодня хороший день. На улице очень солнечно и свежо. Я решила выйти на прогулку. Я немного погуляла и вернулась домой. Дома я приготовила вкусный обед, выпила чай и помыла посуду. Мне нравится сидеть дома, когда идёт дождь. Но когда светит солнце, я всегда хочу выйти погулять и подышать свежим воздухом. А какая погода нравится тебе? Ты любишь, когда идёт дождь или когда светит солнце?
