together and especially cherishing the beautiful sunrise and sunset from the balcony. The magnificent view with our favourite drink in our hands overlooking the beautiful scenery was the most enjoyable during my stay. I have a huge weekend coming up in a couple of months and would like to spend the occasion with you. I suggest we spent the days near a hilly area as it would be a different experience and could try hiking as well. Let me know if you would be available at that point so that we can plan for another great weekend. Looking forward to hearing from you. Warm regards, John
