may get on. If you are lucky enough to push your way on to the bus, you need to hang on, because
it’s like a sardine can. The buses are air conditioned, but it doesn’t help much when the bus is over
capacity. Pickpockets abound so you should be very careful with your belongings.

Hi Martina,
How are things ? I am very glad to read your last letter telling that you spent your holiday
in Spain. Now I want to tell you about my holiday, too.
It was an exciting holiday. I spent the holiday with my family. We went to Huatulco,Iceland
and New York. We chose those places since the climate and the tourist spots are different very
much from the others.

York, the climate is between the other two.
For tourist objects, Huatulco and Iceland have fewer interesting palces that can attract
tourists compared to New York. We saw many beautiful places, like volcanos, geysers, etc.
