In my opinion, winter is the most wonderful time of the year. It is filled with a kind of romance and in the soul we come to life a little child who is waiting for the long-awaited holiday of the New year. Winter holidays are much more interesting than summer. You can go outside and make something out of the snow. This brings great pleasure, despite the fact that the street subzero temperature. Ask any child, what is associated with his winter, he will answer that with the smells of tangerines. Really only in the winter we eat tangerines with great pleasure. Each of us has this taste associated with the holiday.
Another of the pleasant features of the winter holidays is a roller coaster ride. Usually outside the city someone fills a big hill and everyone is welcome to ride on it. This unforgettable feeling of flying cannot be expressed in words. Winter is designed for family holidays, if in the summer you spend most of your time with friends, in the winter with parents and relatives, you have more time to communicate with them.
In one word winter of connects family. That's why I like it so much, and I don't want the winter holidays to end.
