Hello Kate,

How are you? I am having a wonderful time in Jamaica with my Aunt.

I _________________ ( just / come ) back from the beach. The weather is

beautiful here. The food is delicious, too. I _________________ ( already / eat ) so

many different types of fruit! The bad news is that there is a hurricane

coming! Jamaica _______________________ ( not have/ a hurricane/ yet ) this

season, so this will be the first! But my aunt isn't worried. She _______________

( already / buy ) lots of extra food. Some of the tourists _____________________

( already / leave), but my aunt doesn't think it will be bad.

Bye!

Grace
