Wakacje nad Bałtykiem
Vacation by the Baltic Sea
A July family holiday on the Baltic coast: hunting for amber on the beach, sandcastles and noisy seagulls, and evenings of fried fish and chips by the sea.
You will practice: nad + accusative/instrumental for the seaside (jadę nad morze, wakacje nad morzem), present-tense routines (spacerujemy, szukamy), and bo/ale for reasons and contrast.
