Read the passage carefully.
Dear Kate,
Dave and I are having the best holiday of our life! We are in Barbados, one of the loveliest islands in the Caribbean. Although it is much smaller than Jamaica, there seems to be more to do than Jamaica. However, the people seem to be friendlier than those on other islands. We are staying in the most modern hotel I have never seen. It is large and cool, and many people think it’s the best hotel on the island. It’s far more comfortable than any of other hotels, and it’s even bigger than the world famous Belton Hotel. The nearest beach is less than a hundred meters away, and so we can go swimming a lot. It’s really good, and I do wish you were here.
Love,
Mike
