Exercise 2.1
This beach looks so different now!
I remember we used to come here every year
when I was a kid.
It used to be a lot cleaner than it is now!
There didn't use to be any people and now
there are thoushands of people everywhere.
There didin't use to be any big hotels.
There used to be just two hotels
and they were smaller than
the ones they have now.
They were cheaper too and very basic.
Things didn't use to cost so much back then.
I remember we used to walk for miles
along the beach and
we didn't use to see a single person.
It used to quieter and more peaceful.
Sometimes we slept on the beach.
Now, that is prohibited!
How things change!
