My new school is amazing, and all the teachers and classmates are so friendly. Over the Christmas holiday, my parents and I are going up to London to see the Tower of London. This is the old castle that the king used to live in. Later, it was used as a prison for people who angered the king. It's also where the marvellous Crown Jewels are located. I just can't wait to see it. It has such an incredible history and there are so many amazing stories connected with it. From: xl@youthlife.com To: Richard@pep.com.cn Date: 20 September We're also planning on seeing Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, and the Millennium Bridge while we are there, and of course we're going to ride on the London Eye! I think my mother is mostly interested in the shopping, however, so we will also stop by Regent Street. We plan on taking a train up, which should only take an hour and a half. Since we are staying for a week, we plan on just stretching our legs a little after we arrive and then hitting the sights the next day. Well, I guess that's about it for now. I'll buy you a souvenir from the Tower shop. Talk later! Your friend, Xiao Li 2. Exchange drafts.
