Dear Gillie, Hi! How are you?

Guess what-Im going in New York this weekend on a shopping trip with my mum! ITs a special treat for my birthday,and I cant wait! Were staying at Giraffe Hotel in Gramercy. Its near the city center,so it will be easy for us to getall the main shopping areas. On Saturday morning were going to go to Broadway in Soho.We are going to visit Canal Jean Company to find some bargains.In the afternoon probably we are going shopping at Bloomingdales in Manhattan.Its a bit expensive,but its nice to look at the latest fashion from the worlds top designers. On Saturday night,Mum is going to take me to Hard Rock Caf .Itsa really trendy place,with delicious food and great music.Itll be a chance to dress up in my new clothes.

Lots of love, Sally
