Hello from New York – my favourite American city. I


went up the Empire State building yesterday. I was
a bit nervous because it was so high! Then we went
on a boat trip to see the Statue of Liberty. Last night
we saw The Lion King at the theatre. It was
amazing. Today we bought some souvenirs and
now I’m writing this postcard in Central Park. We’re
having a picnic here!
See you soon!
Tom

Hello from Edinburgh! I’m sitting outside the castle


looking at an amazing view of the city. Earlier we
went for a walk in the Old Town. It’s so pretty! We
sat in a little café and had tea and traditional
Scottish cake. It was lovely. We also went on a trip
to Loch Ness last week, but I didn’t see the
monster! Last night we ate at the best fish and chip
restaurant in the city!
See you soon!
Julie
