We had a wonderful holiday in northern Italy last summer. We found just what we had been looking for — a quiet, (1) secluded resort in the
mountains, with a (2) breathtaking view. The weather was (3) fairly warm but not too hot. We went on hikes up the (4) steep mountains and spent
time exploring the quiet, (5) narrow streets of the small towns nearby. The most (6) thrilling moment was when we saw a (7) huge (8) brown bear
while we were walking in the forest. We stayed at the resort for two fabulous weeks. Then we returned home feeling (9) completely rested.
