Dear Richard,
Thank you for your letter about your trip in Xi'an, which is amazing. I am writing to tell you something about my plans for the coming holidays.
With the National Day coming, I am going to travel to Hainan Island to see its beautiful scenery with my family. We will spend 6 days there, from Oct. 1th to Oct. 6th . It’s because of its beautiful scenery that we choose to travel to Hainan Island. Other than hiking on the island, we have planed many other
activities like surfing in the water, spending the nights in the tents. I am sure we will have a wonderful holiday.
In my opinion, travel can not only enrich my knowledge, but also broaden my horizons. Look forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Xiao Li
