My trip to Amsterdam (or rather to Eindhoven)
Hello :)
I'm going to write an entry about my trip to Amsterdam from the 14th to 16th of July, to see how bad my english actually is. Let's give it a try :)
Well it all began with me being at my friends home. I knew that they were always going to big Hardcore and Hardstyle festivals and they've always wanted me to come with them. One day, I was ready to actually do it and I promised, that I would go with them to the Dominator Festival in Eersel (Netherlands).
We were a group out of nine people and we've met on the 14th of July at the Vienna Airport to fly to Amsterdam. Even though I was flying to Germany many times before and the flight to Amsterdam was only like 20 minutes longer, it was hell for me. The Pilot was flying very good, though. During the flight I was holding the hand of a friend of mine, it was so nice of her. She saw that I was really scared.
As the plane was finally landing, and we all got outside, I was straight looking up to the sky. I don't know why, but the sky in Amsterdam seemed so different than the sky in Vienna. It was a really strange feeling. After the flight, we had to go by train for like 1 hour and 30 minutes, to reach Eindhoven. I was really shocked by the price of the ticket, it was 20 Euros and that's how I found out, that I had not enough money taken with me for this weekend.
After the train ride we finally arrived in Eindhoven. Eindhoven was so beautiful, I really liked it. We were staying at a house in Tongelresestraat with other people who went to the Dominator festival! It was fun :) As we layed down all of our things and payed the rooms, we were going out to eat something. Meanwhile it was like 21 pm and we were so tired, that as we got back to the house, we were directly falling into the bed.
On the next day the Dominator Festival began. It took us so long to find the way to the shuttle bus, which directly drives you to the Eersel "E3 Strand". Even though I had not enough money and my friends had to help me out the whole time, the festival was perfect but so exhausting. Our feet hurt so much after this day.
The flight back on sunday, the 16th of July was very stressing us out. We almost missed our flight, and it was my fault because I took much to long to get ready on this day. I felt like they were a little mad at me, being so unorganized.
Nevertheless I was very happy to be there, but next time I'd rather visit the city than I'd visit another festival there.

My trip to Eindhoven or Amsterdam
I'm going to write an entry about my trip to Amsterdam from the 14th to 16th of July, to see how bad my written English actually is. Let's give it a try :)
Well it all began with me at my friends' home. I knew that they were always going to big Hardcore and Hardstyle festivals and they've always wanted me to come with them. One day, I was ready to actually do it and I promised that I would go with them to the Dominator Festival in Eersel (Netherlands).
The nine of us met on July 14 at Vienna Airport to fly to Amsterdam. Even though I had flown to Germany many times before and the flight to Amsterdam was only 20 minutes longer, it was hell for me. The pilot flew very well, though. During the flight I held my friend's hand. It was so nice of her. She saw that I was really scared.
When the plane finally landed, we all got off and I looked straight up into the sky. I don't know why, but the sky in Amsterdam seemed so different to the sky in Vienna. It was a really strange feeling. After the flight, the train took about 90 minutes to Eindhoven. I was really shocked by the price of the ticket; 20 Euros and that's when I found out that I had not taken enough money for this weekend.
Eindhoven was so beautiful, I really liked it. We were staying at a house in Tongelresestraat with other Dominator festival spectators! It was fun :) After we put down all our things and payed for our rooms, we went out to eat something. Around 9pm we were so tired that when we got back to the house we fell directly into bed.
The next day the Dominator Festival began. It took us so long to find the way to the shuttle bus, which goes direct to Eersel "E3 Strand". Even though I had not enough money and my friends had to help me out the whole time, the festival was perfect but very exhausting. Our feet hurt so much that day.
Our flight back on Sunday 16 July, stressed us out. We almost missed it and it was my fault because I took much too long to get ready. I felt like they were a little mad at me for being so disorganized.
Nevertheless I was very happy to be there, but next time I'd rather visit the city than visit another festival.
Very well written!

* This reads better in simple past tense to fit with the previous 'we were'.
** Again this reads better in simple past to fit with the rest of the passage.
*** AM and PM are only used with the 12h clock.
Very good!
