Dear Robert,
Sorry, I haven’t written to you earlier but we have been very busy. You
know, we have been here in Europe for 3 weeks and we have had a great
time. The people are very friendly and kind and the weather is good. Even in
Britain it was sunny and warm.
The week before the last, we flew to London from Montreal and we spent
four days visiting the city. Have you ever visited London? It’s wonderful,
there’s so much to do and see! Last week, we took the Eurostar to Paris and
we stayed with my cousin, Angie. We did some sightseeing and we visited
the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower. I know that you have already visited Paris.
We really enjoyed our vacation there.After Paris, we flew to Barcelona
where it was very hot. We took a bus to a small town on the coast and we
found a hotel with a beautiful view of the sea. I’ve never experienced such
comfort. We relaxed 2 days on the beach before moving on to Italy. In fact,
we’ve just arrived to Florence and we are having breakfast. We haven’t
started our tour, yet.
After Florence, we’re going to Rome and then Athens.
I’ll write again in 2 weeks’ time.
Give my love to Anne and the children.
See you soon!
Diana
