Last month you had a holiday overseas where you stayed with some friends. They have just sent you some photos of your holiday. v. 7
Dear Thomas and Eva, Thank you so much for sending me the photos of the holidays that I spent with you guys over the last month. Believe it or not, it was one of the best holidays of my life with so many happy and joyful moments to cherish for a long time to come. I especially remember our time at the famous beach restaurant where we enjoyed eating some of the biggest lobsters with garlic sauce and butter on the side. And, talking about the photos, I think the photos we took while riding on the horses at a horse ranch was the most natural-looking picture I have ever taken. By the way, I must say sorry to you because I didn’t write to you early enough after receiving the photos from you. It is just that I got really busy dealing with some new assignments at work as well as moving to a new home, and that’s the reason, I couldn’t write back to you even earlier.   Anyway, it is my turn to invite you to my place and spend some time with me because I think that you would like my new place. Warm wishes, Sophia
