Dear Jennifer,
We are in Boston! It’s a very interesting city on the east coast of the USA. It is famous for its colleges, like
Harvard University.
We stayed in the Ritz-Carlton Hotel for one week. It has excellent service, but it was quite expensive. Now
we are at the Bertram Inn. It’s cheaper and very clean.
There are many fascinating places to visit here, like the Old North Church. I took a lot photographs there.
Yesterday we went to the Public Gardens and I went for a ride in a boat. Last week we went to the New
England Aquarium. We saw some seals and a lot of different fish.
Boston has hundreds of good restaurants. The best one so far is Monica’s. They have delicious pasta
dishes.
Newbury Street is the best area for shopping. The Sunflower and Filene’s Basement are two very good
shops. They have got much cheaper prices than the others.
The nightlife is very exciting here too. On Tuesday I went to the Roxy and danced to live pop music. Cafes
are very popular with tourists too. My favourite is the Corner Café. It has got a great atmosphere.
See you soon.
Love,
Hannah
