1. Why did Emily and her class wear wetsuits?
Our school trip

Subject: Our school trip to the Lake District

Hi Pablo,

Thanks for your email and the photos of your town. It looks beautiful!

Guess what? Last week my class went on a school trip to the Lake District for three days. We stayed in a youth hostel next to a lake. On the first day we went kayaking, but it was very cold, so we wore wetsuits. On the second day we climbed a mountain. I was tired, but the view from the top was amazing!

Next month I'm going to start guitar lessons. Do you play an instrument? What are you going to do in the summer holidays?

I'm attaching a photo of my friends and me at the top of the mountain.

Write back soon!
Love,
Emily
