Text, Marta skriver
I söndags hade vi en utflykt. Vi tog tåget från Knivsta till Uppsala, och sedan tog vi en buss till en sjö nära staden. Det var varmt och lugnt. Ida och Jonas badade, men vattnet var kallt! Viktor och jag satt i en båt. Sedan grillade vi korv, och Jonas köpte glass. Viktor åt två glassar.
På eftermiddagen tappade Viktor mössan i skogen. Vi letade efter den länge, men vi hittade den inte. Sedan missade vi bussen tillbaka, och vi gick till stationen. Det tog en timme. På tåget hem sov Viktor. Det var en skön dag!
Hälsningar, Marta

Last Sunday we had a day out. We took the train from Knivsta to Uppsala, and then we took a bus to a lake near the town. It was warm and calm. Ida and Jonas went swimming, but the water was cold! Viktor and I sat in a boat. Then we barbecued sausages, and Jonas bought ice cream. Viktor ate two ice creams.
In the afternoon Viktor lost his woolly hat in the forest. We looked for it for a long time, but we did not find it. Then we missed the bus back, and we walked to the station. It took an hour. On the train home Viktor slept. It was a lovely day!
Best wishes, Marta

| Kenji | Hej Oskar! Hur var helgen? |
| Oskar | Hej! Den var jobbig. I lördags jobbade jag. |
| Kenji | Ja, men varför kom du inte på festen efter jobbet? |
| Oskar | Jag skulle sluta klockan sex, men jag slutade klockan tio. Jag ville komma, men jag kunde inte. |
| Kenji | Okej. Och i söndags? |
| Oskar | Då hjälpte jag Ingrid. Hon flyttade till en ny lägenhet, och jag bar lådor hela dagen. |
| Kenji | Vad jobbigt! |
| Oskar | Ja, jag var mycket trött i går kväll. Men hur var det på festen? |
| Kenji | Det var mycket roligt! Jag tog med tårtan, och jag hämtade Tariq på kaféet. Sedan dansade alla. |
| Oskar | Dansade du också? |
| Kenji | Ja, hela kvällen! |
| Oskar | När kom du hem? |
| Kenji | Klockan ett. Jag sov bara sex timmar. |

| Kenji | Hi Oskar! How was the weekend? |
| Oskar | Hi! It was hard. Last Saturday I worked. |

| Oskar | I was going to finish at six, but I finished at ten. I wanted to come, but I could not. |
