Exercise 7
Hi Anna,
This is my third day in Scotland. We’re staying in a hostel in the mountains. The weather is quite cold, but the country
is beautiful.
The day before yesterday we went kayaking. It was scary but it was also very exciting! Then in the evening, we went to a pub with traditional music and dancing. Yesterday, we went trekking in the mountains. It was a sunny day and we saw some fantastic views.
Tomorrow, we’re going to visit my aunt and uncle in Edinburgh. We’re staying there for a week and then we’re flying back home.
Wish you were here!
Bye for now!
Lucy
