I want to go to Paris next week. It's so beautiful there. I like the french clothes and their style. I must buy a ticket on Monday and also some new hats. I'd like to wear hats in museums, restaurants and cafes. I have some money but I can also ask my dad for some more. My perfect day starts in a cafe in the morning. I want to eat their famous croissants and drink coffee. It's spring now: I can visit the Eiffel Tower and Louvre museum. I want to go shopping on Champs-Élysées boulevard. I love France!

Hello Alice,
It was a lovely family day. Our children played outside in the yard while my husband worked in the basement downstairs . I stayed inside because I had a lot of work. How is the weather in Bristol? I liked to live there but it was too cold and rainy for me and my family. Here in Spain the temperature is so pleasant... you should come here and visit us this summer. I want to see you again!
