I am writing from Spain to tell you about my holiday. We are staying in a five-star hotel in the center of Madrid. Madrid looks fantastic at this time of the year and I am enjoying every minute of our trip! At the moment my mother is doing the shopping for souvenirs and my father is having coffee on the balcony. You know he hates shopping. The weather is rather cool these days and perfect for doing sightseeing. We spend most of the days walking around the city and taking photos. We think about going to Barcelona tomorrow. I hope to see the famous Catedral de Barcelona and my parents want to visit Gran Teatre del Liceu. The food here is very tasty. The Spanish eat lots of vegetables and fruit and they cook delicious omelets and paella. I am afraid I've put on weight because I eat so much here! We are leaving Spain next Friday. I love here so much that I want to return home!

See you soon,

Mary
