Hi Loda and Lodi, I can't explain in words that how happy was I when I received the holiday photos. It refreshed those joyful moments that we spent at your house. I am full of gratitude for the stay at your house during our trip to Spain. The six days we spent together are full of memories. Sometimes, I still laugh at Loda's karaoke singing sessions. He is always the centre of attraction at every party. Again, thank you for sending us those photos. Regrettably, I was not able to write a letter to you because I was consumed by household activities once I arrived. As you know, the trip was very long, and a lot of things got piled up. I hope you understand the situation here. Meanwhile, I want you to come to Canada and spend some days with us. We will go on day trips to nearby national parks. I can't wait to hear from you. Your best friend, Raj
