Sorry for not writing earlier but Ive been incredibly busy since I got back!
Im writing to thank you for letting me stay with you in August. I had a fantastic time.
The weather was perfect and I really think my English got better. I hope you think so
too!
It was very nice to meet Claire and Emma. There were a lot of memorable days, but Ill
never forget the open air concert we went to it was amazing or the visit to
Edinburgh Castle.
For the last three weeks Ive been very busy organixing everything for my next year at
university. I have to matriculate for my subjects and choose the optional ones I want to
do. Ive also been doing a lot of exercise as I put on three kilos while I was in Glasgow!
Ive been going swimming every day and playing football with my friends. Talking of
football, I was sorry to see that Celtic lost on Saturday. Lets hope they play better next
week.
Anyway, thats all for now. Thanks again for everything. Dont forget my invitation to
come to Geneva my family would love to meet you. Spring would be a great time as
its warm and not too crowded.
Best wishes
Christelle
PS I enclose a photo I took of the girls in Edinburgh.
