Complete the Situation

Write approximately five lines to complete the following situation.

Last summer I went back to the village where I used to spend my summer vacation. It was barely recognizable since it had changed a lot since the last time I was in my town. They built a shopping center and a sports center where before there was only one abandoned building. They also built more buildings and houses in the park where I used to play as a child with my cousins. The access to the beaches was more complicated than before because there were many stones on the road where you could slip.
