Я живу в Москве, в районе Химки. У нас есть универмаг «Липпулайва», а в нём – детский парк, в котором много аттракционов: трамплин, кривое зеркало, горка для лазанья, горка для катания, стена для лазания, «стрелялки» и игровые автоматы.
Я хожу туда почти каждую неделю по вторникам, потому что тогда продают два билета за одну цену. Мои самые любимые аттракционы – трамплин и надувная горка. Я провожу в детском парке два часа, и они пролетают незаметно. Я хожу туда со своей подругой, и нам там бывает очень весело. Когда нам становится жарко, мы покупаем фанту и иногда попкорн.
