Dear Lan,

I arrived at Hue Railway station at 7 am on Sunday. Uncle Hung took me home by motorbike.

I have visited the Imperial city. I was amazed by magnificent monuments there. I also went to Dong Ba Market, the biggest market in Hue. This is the place where I bought a lot of things. Yesterday Uncle Hung and I went to eat beef noodles and Com Hen. I enjoyed it very much.

I will leave Hue on Saturday. I am so happy. People in Hue are very nice and friendly. I miss them very much. The train is scheduled to come to Ha Noi at 6 pm. Please collect me at the station.

I am looking forward to meeting and telling you about the trip in Hue.

See you then,

Yours
