We spent all day driving around the city. There’s a great drive marked out for tourists. It has blue and white signs with seagulls on them to show the way to go. It’s a 79km round-trip that takes in all the famous tourist spots. We stopped many times to admire the view and take photographs. I now have a really good idea of what the city’s like. In the evening, I went to Chinatown with Peter and Terri. Many/A lot of/Some Chinese immigrants settled in this area in the 1850s. The fronts of the buildings are decorated to look like old buildings in southern China. There are some interesting temples, a number of markets and a great many restaurants here. There are also art galleries and a museum containing documents, photographs and all sorts of objects about the history of Chinese immigration, but it’s closed in the evening. I will have to go back during the day. We had a delicious meal and then walked back down the hill to our hotel. Imagine you are on holiday somewhere. Write an email or a postcard to a friend telling them about it.Homework
