Example Letter
Dear Helen,
How are you? I hope you’re doing well. Well, here I am in California, and my dream has finally come true!
We’re staying in a small hotel in San Francisco. It’s a fantastic city full of picturesque houses. The symbol of the city is the Golden Gate Bridge, which stretches across the mouth of San Francisco Bay. The scenery from the bridge is stunning, and I’ve already taken some amazing photos.
Tomorrow, we’re leaving for Los Angeles. I’m really looking forward to seeing this famous city. It’s the second-largest city after New York and is quite modern. I’d love to visit Hollywood, the center of the movie industry, and Beverly Hills, where famous actors and other celebrities live. And of course, I’m dreaming of visiting Disneyland! I’ve already been to Disneyland Paris, and I want to compare the two parks.
Well, I have to go now and pack my luggage. Wish you were here!
Love,
Catherine
