Hi Ruby,

Hello from New York! It’s really sunny here today but it’s cold – about 0°C.

We met my parents’ American friends last week. We’re staying with them. They’ve got two children, Julie and Jake.
Yesterday I went shopping with them. They showed me some good clothes shops and I bought you a T-shirt!

Jake really likes reggae. He can sing really well. I’m going to a reggae concert with him tonight. Julie loves sport.
We’re going to see her in a basketball game on Saturday.

I like American food. There are a lot of fast food restaurants here but we don’t eat it every day! Julie and Jake’s dad
often cooks pasta or fish at home. We sometimes go out for ice cream after dinner.

Email soon!

Bonnie
