Dear Liz,

Thank you for your letter. It was great to hear from you again.

Well, mom and I went to visit our grandparents last weekend. We talked about their trip to London. They saw a lot of beautiful places and bought nice souvenirs there. My grandparents were at the theatre in the center of the city. You know, they took lots of pictures. They also told us about the parks and museums there. I had a good time! In the evening we came home happy. London is an interesting place! I love my grandparents very much!

Write back soon.

Best wishes,

Nataly
