Dear Mom,
This is just a quick note to tell you how the holiday is going. We’re staying in a nice hotel in a quiet part of
town, so you can imagine how we feel. As you know, this is a small city, and the people are very kind and
friendly. We have had some good weather since we got here, so we are feeling very happy. We have seen some
of the beautiful sights and a few museums, and we thought they were very impressive. Yesterday we decided to
go for a swim, and we went to a nice beach where the water was blue and clean.
Last night, we had a delicious meal in a wonderful restaurant. The food and services were excellent. When the
bill came, we could hardly believe it, as it was so cheap.
As our hobbies are sightseeing and swimming, we enjoyed the holiday so much.
Anyway, I’d better stop, but I’ll write again soon.
Love,
Mary & John
