Thu: How was your travel to Alaska, Ron?
Ron: It was fantastic. Although it was very cold, I did many interesting activities like
ice fishing or sleeping in a big igloo.
Thu: Wow! How did you move there?
Ron: I rode a dogsled pulled by powerful dogs on the snow and through the forests.
It was like getting lost in a marvelous snow kingdom.
Thu: Sounds cool. I’m a dog lover, so I really want to try travelling with those
native dogs. Did you see any bears?
Ron: No, I didn’t. Because I went there in October when all bears often sleep.
Thu: What a pity!
Ron: Yes, I know. But I had a great chance to see the northern lights. They were too
beautiful to describe in words.
Thu: Awesome! I’m sure Alaska will be on the list of my future destinations.

Hi Alice,
It was great to hear from you. I’m preparing to attend the annual Flower Festival in
Da Lat. It often takes place in December or January for local people and visitors to
enjoy the Christmas and New Year atmosphere. As its name, the festival is always
full of extremely beautiful flowers and other special plants on display. What I like
best is the appearance of popular singers and movie stars. Everything and everyone is
charming. Hope you can join me some day.
