Her head was hurting. She tried to open her eyes, but her eyelids seemed so heavy. She could hear voices, like from afar. Her mouth was dry and she could not lift her arm. What had happened? Where was she?
The weather was gorgeous so Jack and Rowena decided to cycle to their favourite beer garden with a jazz band playing in the gazebo. It took them an hour and a half cycling from their house. They passed by some parks, a riverbank, crossed the bridge where they stopped to look at the view of the river and the mountains.
The jazz band was already playing when they reached the beer garden. The bought their beer and food. The garden was full of fellow cyclists and other jazz enthusiasts. They stayed for a couple of hours. On the way back, the driver of the fast car didn’t see Rowena as she crossed the road. So Rowena was thrown off the bike. They took her to the hospital straight away. Now, she was waking up and she couldn’t remember what happened.

What a sad end to a lovely day out – but at least she wasn’t killed and will, hopefully, recover. Some lovely descriptions of the countryside and the fun everyone was having in the beer garden. 🙂
