5. Book p.59 Hi Steve, How are you? My father has decided to take our family for a holiday in April. We were all very excited when Dad came home with some travel brochures today. The brochures on Sun Resort in Malaysia were most interesting. When Mum looked at the pages that showed the bedrooms and bathrooms, she was delighted. She imagined herself having a whole weeks rest from housework. My sister, Anna, was thrilled when she saw the pictures of coral and beautiful tropical fish. She really enjoys swimming and snorkelling. As you know, my dad loves to play golf! Sun Resort is located right next to a golf course. Dad was already dreaming about swinging away at the ball! I was excited about the water sports available at Sun Resort, especially canoeing. You know I love canoeing. I hope I will be able to practise my canoeing skills at Sun Resort!
