READING
Dear Jenny,
Hi! I’m enjoying my vacation in Dalat city. I’m staying with my aunt’s family. They’re very
hospitable. I’m writing this letter in the living room and my aunt’s children are sitting
here with me. They’re watching cartoons on TV.
As you know, I’m going sight-seeing here. I really love this city because I’m
learning a lot about Vietnamese culture. I visit a lot of places and the landscapes are
very beautiful. I can speak a little Vietnamese, but I can’t read and write it. Anyway,
the food is delicious and I’m eating a lot! The weather is also wonderful. It’s quite cold
here in December.
Lots of love,
Susan
P.S. I’m sending you a photo of Dalat city.
