Dear Kate,

I’m having a great time in England! I’m staying at my friend’s house in a small town not far from London. The weather isn’t very good here. It’s cold and it often rains. But it’s not a problem because I have got some warm sweaters, a coat and waterproof boots.

I’ve already met a lot of new friends. We went to London two days ago. This city is fantastic! We visited St Paul’s Cathedral and the Houses of Parliament. We are going to London again next Friday because I haven’t been to the British Museum yet. I want to visit it so much!

Yesterday we had a Halloween party. It’s a traditional British holiday which people celebrate on the 31st of October. Children love it very much. We dressed as witches and ghosts, played games and ate sweets, cakes and fruit.

I’ve taken a lot of photos of my new friends and the places I have visited. I’ve also bought you some nice souvenirs.

That’s all for now.

Love,

Ann
