I am writing from Spain to tell you about my holiday. We stay in a five-star hotel in the centre of Madrid, Madrid is looking fantastic at this time of the year and I enjoy every minute of our trip! At the moment my mother is doing the shopping for souvenirs and my father is having coffee on the balcony. You know he hates shopping. The weather is rather cool these days and perfect for doing sightseeing. We spend most of the days walking around the city and taking photos. We are thinking about going to Barcelona tomorrow. I hope to see the famous Catedral de Barcelona and my parents want to visit Gran Teatre del Liceu. Food here is very tasty. The Spanish eat lots of vegetables and fruit and they cook delicious omelets and paella. I am afraid I've put on weight because I eat so much here! We leave Spain next Friday. I love here so much that I don’t want to return home!
See you soon,
Mary
