Time's up
Emma and George bought a new car right after getting married. They were really happy with it, so they decided to pack all their things and go to New York which was their favorite city. The city was beautiful. They went to several places, but the ones they loved the most were the Statue of Liberty and Central Park where they took lots of pictures and enjoyed the views. They also went to Mexican and Chinese restaurants where they had delicious food and a very nice service. What they loved the most was the city lights at night. They stayed there for a whole week and didn’t want to go back home so soon; however, they were happy and pleased after spending one of the best weeks of their lives in their favorite city.
