Dear Chris,
I'm writing you this letter from the beach. We 1 ____ a wonderful holiday here in Albica. There are lots of things to do and the weather is perfect - hot sun every day. At the moment, Terry 2 ____ in the lovely warm sea and Jan and Mike 3 ____ volleyball on the sand. I 4 ____ to friends and watching the people around me. It's very relaxing. The man next to me on the beach 5 ____ anything - he's just sleeping and smiling in his sleep. But his children 6 ____ all over the beach. They are playing a game.
