Dear Mary,
How are you? I had a wonderful time last weekend.
I went to the seaside with my friends. We
traveled there
by bus. We
  couldn`t find any rooms to rent, so we

stayed in a hotel with a nice view of the see.
On Saturday w e spent all day on the beach. It was a little cold, so we
didn`t swim in the sea. We were just sitting on the sand and
watching the sea. Then w e had dinner in a cafe. I ate fish and chips. In the evening w e went to the cinema, but I didn`t like the film very much.
On Sunday we visited a local museum. Then we walked
along the river and took some pictures before we

caught the 5 o’clock bus back.

I enjoyed my weekend very much.
I hope your weekend was great, too.
Write soon.
Love,
Jackie.
