My sister and I wanted to climb a hill near our town.
We packed bread, cheese and a lot of water.
The path was steep and the sun was hot.
After two hours I was tired and hungry.
Suddenly the sky turned dark and it started to rain.
We ran to a small hut and waited there.
When the rain stopped, we saw a rainbow over the valley.
It was wet and hard, but it was a wonderful day.
