I hope

letter finds you in good health and best of spirits. I want to thank you for inviting me to join you during the summer vacation. I really enjoyed our Vancouver trip. I guess it was the best ever voyage that I had in my life and the photos that we collected are also
fabulous. I appreciate that you have posted me all the pictures and memories that we collected.
I even wanted to write to you earlier unfortunately, I got stuck in my office work as you know well that

Moreover
, my mother was sick and was hospitalized for 5 days. Hence

I would like to extend you the invitation for the winter break in my town Blue Mountains, Ontario. This

a very adorable place and we can go skiing during vacations and you can stay with me and enjoy the homemade food from my mother as she cooks delicious meals.

Yours sincerely,
Navneet Kaur.Correct your spelling
