Dear Mary,
How are you? I haven’t heard from you for a while, so I thought I drop a line and give you some of our news.
We’re having a nice time here in Algeria, in a region called Chereaa. The weather here is very cold. It always
rains and snows a lot at this time of year. We are staying in a comfortable hotel. We have spectacular views of
mountains and forests from our bedroom. Tomorrow, we’re going skiing and hiking. Next week, we’re going
to move to a famous place in Algiers called the Casbah. It has got many tourist resorts especially its old
houses. Algeria is really attractive and its people are friendly. I’ve made up my mind; I will visit it every year.
I hope you’re all well. Write soon.
Love
Bill and Lue.
