Dear Mary,
Thanks a lot for your letter. I hope you passed all your
tests! (15)
First of all, let me tell you about my one-week package
holiday to Rome. Everything was OK, but we didn’t like our
hotel. It was too noisy and the food was awful. We even had a
stomachache and consulted a doctor. However, all the
excursions were extremely interesting. We visited the Vatican
and were impressed by the famous St. Peter’s Cathedral. I also
enjoyed the Colosseum and other sights of Rome. All in all,
we enjoyed our holiday. (78)
You know Russia is a unique country and I’ll show you lots
of interesting things. If you make up your mind, let me know
what cities you would like to visit. (31)
Hope to hear from you soon.
Best wishes,
Lucy (9)
