Grandma and Grandpa live in the city. Today there is rain and wind. We drive to Grandma and Grandpa. The traffic light is red, and then green. We cross the big bridge. At the bus stop there is a blue umbrella. Grandma waits for us with hot tea. The rain falls, but at Grandma and Grandpa's house it is warm and pleasant.
