My summer holiday in Mexico City has been perfect so far! I have already visited the National Palace but I haven't seen the Great Temple yet. Five days ago I walked around the Zocalo Square and it was great. Yesterday afternoon I watched a bullfight at the Plaza de Toros. I haven't bought souvenirs at the local market yet, so I would like to do it at the end of the week. Also, I have already tried the traditional Mexican food.
How is everyone at home? Have you done anything interesting lately? Did you like postcards that I sent you last week? I hope so.
The object of the game is for each team to try and score more goals than the opposition. Matches are won by the team that scores the most goals throughout the game. A standard football team consists of 11 players.
A goal is scored when one team manages to get the ball into the marked area defended by a member of the opposition called a goalie.
Standard adult football matches consist of two halves of 45 minutes play
A foul is the penalty given to one player purposefully sabotaging another in a physical way, such as kicking.
The goalkeeper is the only member of a team who is allowed to handle the ball during play
Each team has the option to bring on a maximum of three substitutes during a game.
Dear Mum,

Well, that's all for now. I miss you a lot.
All my love,
