Dear Gabriela,

Hope you’re OK. We are having a great vacation here! We arrived four
days ago, and we stayed in a nice hotel downtown. Yesterday morning we
went to see the church, and in the afternoon we visited the museum.
Right now we’re sitting in a café in the main square. It’s really beautiful.
There is a lake, called Titicaca Lake, here in Puno.
My favorite area is the dock. It’s fantastic. There are nice restaurants, and we usually go for a
walk there in the afternoon, then we have dinner.
You’d really like it.
See you next week!
