Hi Linda

I am on holiday with Jack and the children. Our hotel is in Amesbury town centre but

at the moment we are sitting in a café by the River Avon. Today we are going to

pe
Amesbury Museum. Amesbury is the oldest town in England and it’s really
interesting. The River Avon is beautiful and yesterday we walked 15 km along the
river. It was a long way but we had a great time.

Pa
We arrived in Amesbury two days ago but we are staying here for 10 days. Can you
come and visit us here next weekend? You don’t live far from here and you love
