Dear Mile,
I am writing this letter to tell you that I have just returned from a summer vacation to Nha Trang with my family. Nha Trang is the capital city of Khanh Hoa province. This beautiful city is known as a popular destination for tourists because it is the heaven of wonderful beaches with turquoise water. It is the first time I have ever visited this amazing city.
It is more than 1000km from Hanoi to Nha Trang but it only took us two hours by airplane to get there. We spent one week there. On our first day, we enjoyed eating sea foods, sightseeing some famous places and walking along the beach at night. All sights are so incredible and magnificent. The weather was perfect. It was cool and windy during the time we were there. Especially, I was so impressed by people in Nha Trang. They are so friendly and hospitable.
It was such an awesome vacation and everybody in my family was so happy and relaxed. We really want to come back to Nha Trang when we have time next year. What are you going to do on your summer vacation? Write to me when you have time.
Love,
Dung
