Last year, I spent my summer holidays at a seaside town.
The hotel was modern and comfortable. I had a
wonderful holiday until the fire.
It was Saturday evening and everybody was sitting in the
discotheque (which was) on the ground floor. It was
crowded with people. They were dancing and smiling
happily. Suddenly we smelt smoke. Then black smoke
began to fill the room. Everybody started to scream in
panic. People ran toward the fire exits. Outdoor was
blocked. Many people began coughing and choking.
Then, just as we thought we had only minutes to live, the
fire brigade arrived. Firemen fought their way into the
room and soon everyone was safely out of the building.
Luckily, nobody was seriously hurt. It was the most
frightening experience of my life.
