My hHolidays in France My Holidays in France

Title

My husband and me went for a holiday to the North of France.


My husband and meI went for a holiday to the Nnorth of France. My husband and I went to the north of France.

could also say 'holiday to Northern France"

My husband and me went for a holiday toI are on holiday / on vacation in the North of France. My husband and I are on holiday / on vacation in the North of France.

The first two sentences should probably be the same tense as you introduce the topic. This is a way to make them both present tense.

It’s the first day.


It’s the first day. It’s the first day.

This sentence sounds a bit awkward, because the rest of the entry is in past tense.

It’s theToday is / was our first day. Today is / was our first day.

I think this is a good transition sentence that could work in either tense.

We hoped that the weather would be fine, but when we arrived it started to rain.


We hoped that the weather would be fine, but when we arrived, it started to rain. We hoped that the weather would be fine, but when we arrived, it started to rain.

But after an hour it stopped and we went to the beach.


But aAfter an hour, it stopped and we went to the beach. After an hour, it stopped and we went to the beach.

But aAfter an hour it stopped, and we went to the beach. After an hour it stopped, and we went to the beach.

You just used "but" in the sentence before, and it's a word to use sparingly. (You could use another transitional word with a similar effect, such as "However" or "Although," but I think they sound too much like "but.") My suggestion is to delete the transition word if you want simple narration, or use something very different to reflect your feelings: "Luckily / Fortunately" or "To our surprise" etc.

Because of the weather no one was at the beach and we had the beach for us alone.


Because of the weather, no one was at the beachelse was around, and we had the beach for us aloneto ourselves. Because of the weather, no one else was around, and we had the beach to ourselves.

adjusted to avoid some repeated phrases

Because of the weather no one was at the beach, and we had the beach for us aloneit to ourselves. Because of the weather no one was at the beach, and we had it to ourselves.

The standard phrase is "to ourselves, to him/herself, to myself, to yourself, to themselves."

We really enjoyed it, it’s a beautiful place.


We really enjoyed it, i. It’s a beautiful place. We really enjoyed it. It’s a beautiful place.

Consider specifying whether you mean Northern France or the beach is a beautiful place

We really enjoyed it,; it’s a beautiful place. We really enjoyed it; it’s a beautiful place.

You may want to review the rule for joining two independent clauses. Look up FANBOYS conjunctions for a quick reminder. In this sentence, because there is no conjunction, a semicolon is used.
