Thank you very much for your letter. Your trip sounds exciting! I can’t wait_______ hear what Africa is like.
Since my last letter to you, I had a little adventure _______ my own. Early this month, my mother and I took
______ flight to Dunhuang, in the north-west of China. The desert out there was really quite amazing—I had never seen so much sand in my life!
______ we were there, we arranged with a tour company to ride camels. I was very excited
_______ this was the first time I had seen one up close. We had hoped that we would get to see some other wildlife on our trip,
_______ sadly we didn’t.
Since you are going to the Sahara, I have some advice-----be sure to bring a large hat and a shirt with long sleeves,______you’ll need for protection. The sun can be
______brilliant that you’ll need to keep covered or you’ll get burnt-----my cheeks were so red for days after my trip. And another thing, you’ll need to keep a good supply of water with you, since it is so dry and hot.
I am sure you’ll have a nice trip. I look forward to receiving your postcards!
Best wishes

After the trip by camel, we’re going to travel down the River Nile. We’ll start at Lake Victoria. A little way down the river from Lake Victoria, the water (actual) gets quite rough.
My older brother and I are busy (arrange) a trip to Africa.
