Dear ............,
Dear Mary,
Hello, how are you. Hope you are having a joyous time. I am writing this letter to thank you for the remarkable holiday which I spent with you in your country. I had a great time and I can never forget those days of fun and enjoyment.
I would like to thank you not only for sending me the photographs but also for the lovely time I had staying with you. The photos are amazing bringing back the memories of the time we were together, moreover, the fun we had doing shopping and visiting astounding beaches. Singapore is a beautiful place with extraordinary landscape. Furthermore, the Sentosa in Singapore was one the best place with restaurants offering tempting and mouth-watering cuisines, the Disney land and amazing rides.
I apologise for writing after a long time. When I reached back home my health conditions deteriorated. I was suffering from viral infection and I was on strong medications and bed rest.
I would like to invite you to visit my city Delhi and stay with me for few days. The best time to come to Delhi is October and November as the weather is pleasant. We will have a lot of fun in shopping, visiting the beautiful architectural places and having succulent food especially the famous street food of Delhi.
I hope to see you soon. Take care.
With Love,
Prabhpreet Kaur
