Correct Her Postcard

Hi Aaron,
Im having a great time here in Fiji. Its a very
interesting place. You should come some day
and see it for yourself. Ive made some friends.
They are so nice and polite. We often go to the
beach and swim all day. Of course, you must put
on a lot of sunscreen in order to avoid sunburn.
I hope to go for a couple of weeks to LA next
spring. Oh, I have to tell you about this guy I
met. Gorgeous, 63, suntanned, 007 looks, etc.
Do I have to tell you more? We go to the beach
every morning to watch the sunrise. Well, you
are going to meet him when you come here. You
can see Im having a fantastic time here.

On the journey to () Rhodes island, the young

and beautiful Evi Tsombie met the handsome
Arturo de Gakides. She fell in love at first sight

island called Simi. There she reported the

locked up forever. Evi was given a medal for
bravery.

Love,
