Day 4:

Key:
Dear Anna,
I hope this email finds you well. It’s great to hear that you’ve
started your summer vacation in New York! Your experiences sound
amazing – visiting the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, and
Central Park. I’m a little jealous! I’m still fine after the final exam, and
now I’m writing to let you know about my life these days as well as my
plan for this summer vacation.
Regarding my final exam, I have just finished it with a flying
colors. Obviously/ In particular, Phylosophy is quite difficult subject,
but I got 10 marks. It’s incredible, isn’t it?/ unbelievable
 As for my summer plans, I’ve decided to head to a charming beach
city called Santa Monica. It’s located along the sunny coast of
California. The beach stretches for miles, offering soft sands, rolling
waves, and plenty of space for sunbathing, beach volleyball, and
leisurely strolls. I’ll keep you posted once I decide.
When it comes to activities to enjoy there, I’ll start my days with
sunrise yoga sessions right by the water. There’s something magical
about practicing yoga with the sound of waves in the background. Since
I’ve always wanted to ride the waves, I’ve signed up for beginner
surfing lessons. In addition, I will also enjoy the local food with a
variety of seafood.
By the way, thank you for offering to buy me a souvenir! How
about a small New York-themed keychain? That would be lovely. Enjoy
the rest of your vacation, Anna! Looking forward to hearing more about
your adventures.
Take care,
John
