Dear …,
Thanks for your letter. It’s nice to hear from you again. I enjoyed your story about the trip to Suzdal with your class.
You’ve asked me about my free time. Last Sunday I went to Alton Towers with my parents and my younger brother. Alton Towers is a theme park with a lot of rides and other amusements. You can also call it a funfair. I hate theme parks. I prefer going for a walk in the country to going to a theme park. For a start, theme parks are very expensive. Another thing is that the food in theme parks is awful! Last but not least, I don’t think theme parks are very safe.
Have you ever been to a theme park, or a funfair? Are there many theme parks in your region? What do you think about theme parks?
Looking forward to your letter.
Bye,
Richard
