My family decided to make a trip to Da Lat, where my uncle is living. We visited my uncle’s farm and tasted some delicious fruits from his farm. He took us some famous places around Da Lat city. In the evening, we took a horse ride around Xuan Huong Lake. It was a wonderful moment in my life. We also took a lot of pictures at Bao Dai palace, Da Lat flower garden, Valley of Love and so on. We went to Da Lat market to buy some souvenirs for my classmates. I enclosed some of my photos with my letter. Take a look and give me your comments. Give my love to your family, too. Your friend, Nam
