Dear Rachel,
I am having a wonderful time here! We are on a lovely
island in the Cyclades, called Santorini. The hotel we are
staying at is nice and quiet. It’s got a lovely swimming pool.
The weather is hot and sunny. Right now, I am sitting
outside a fantastic cafй by the sea. Paul is snorkelling in the
clear water, as usual. He is looking for some shells to take
home. Dad is visiting some ancient ruins on the island. Dad
enjoys visiting old places — I think they’re boring. Mum is
buying souvenirs at the market. She loves the market but it’s a
bit noisy for me.
We go to restaurants nearly every night for dinner. My
favourite one is by the sea. Mum and Dad always order seafood
but I never do — it’s horrible. I order souvlaki — it’s so
delicious! The sunsets are spectacular and the local people are
really friendly, too. I love it here so much, I never want to leave!
Oh well, that’s all for now. See you next week.
Love,
Suzanne
P.S. There are a lot of donkeys on the island. They usually
carry people’s bags to their hotels. They are so patient and gentle!
