How romantic it was: water, stars, bacon, freedom, friends...
"Not great?", Joe said.
"This is wonderful!" Tom said. "What are you guys talking about?"
"They'll just die here!"
"For me it's just life," said Tom. "You don't get up early, do not wash, do not go to school. You just relax and enjoy".

Tom replied, "Oh, they just have the time to take the bully ships, to get money and hide them in a terrible place."
"What dreadful place?"
"Somewhere on the island. Where there are a lot of ghosts."

There are a lot of reasons why students like summer. To begin with, they shouldn't go to school and do their homework. They feel freedom and happiness when they don't have to wake up very early and spend their free time in school. They can do whatever they want in summer. Another reason that they can go out with they friends all day long, go to parks, cinemas and so on. And, of course, one of the main factors is warm weather. Students go on vacations with family, in camps and have a great time there.
