You are away from home visiting a relative. You have decided to write a letter to your friend. You should: Briefly describe where you are Say why you are there Mention something pleasant or unpleasant that has happened so far Outline your plans for the next day Explain your arrangements for your journey home. Write an informal letter to your friend and cover all the points mentioned above.

How are you doing? How are the kids? I know Sally is keeping the house lively, because i know that left to you and little Michael, that house would be more silent than a graveyard.

I traveled down to Connecticut to visit my cousin just to have a change of scenery and so far I've had quite an experience here. The food is different, the weather is hotter down here and it appears there is a higher crime rate here. I'm adjusting nicely though.

I attended a football game last weekend and it was really fun. Connecticut is a fun place to be in, provided you don't stay out after 11, haha.

I have a date with a gorgeous lady tomorrow, i met her at the football game. She was supporting the home team though, but this shows that opposites attract, right?

I would be going back to California next week though, i would make a brief stop to see my brother before completing the journey home.

Greet Sally and Michael for me, tell them i would come over for Thanksgiving and that i love them. Take care, James.

Yours faithfully,

Jordan.
