What's the alternative?

Tanya Forbes

As I’m currently in Japan and unable to ride my horse, I still need to exercise, I enjoy being outside and now my 14 days quarantine is over, this led me to ask myself…….

What are the alternatives”?

In this case alternative is used as word meaning different from usual.

I could use it in the following sentences: -

 

·        I need an alternative kind of exercise!

·        Do you have any alternative ideas?

·        What real alternatives do I have?

·        I need to consider all the alternatives available to me in these circumstances.

 

The big question is……

·        Is there actually an alternative to horse riding?

 

Well for now the alternative is running……….

If you can think of any alternative exercise that I would like, please share it me!
