Dear Tom,
Thank you for your letter.
I have never been in Washington before! Lucky you are. If you ask me I travel by air twice in year. Tell you the truth, I am very afraid of flying, because i don`t like height at all. That`s why I prefer travel by train. You can also meet intersting people there.
Oh, it`s great news! I was in Europe two months ago. What do you want to see there most of all? Will you be there whole summer? How many countries do you want to visit?
Sorry, I should help my mother now.
Write back soon
Best wishes,
Ann
