Dear Fiona,

Well, here I am in the sunny islands of the Caribbean, enjoying the marvellous weather that is much hoter than in England in the moment. I am in Martinique, the larger of the Windward islands in the, Eastern Caribbean. There is no point to try to call me. My mobile phone is aout of order. The sandy beaches are the beautifullest I have ever seen and the food is superb! I can´t to stop eating. I´ve bought lots of souvenirs! My suitcases will be much heavyer becuase I´ve bought you so many presents! See you in a week.

Love,

Clara
