Dear Nan,
We are having a great a holiday here on the Gold Coast. Yesterday we went to the Movie World.
When we got up in the morning, it looked like rain. After a while the cloud disappeared. And it
became a sunny day. We then decided to go to the Movie World.
The first ride I went on was Lethal Weapon. Next I saw the Police Academy show. After that I
had lunch as I was really hungry. Meanwhile, Mum and Kelly queued for the Batman ride.
About one oclock we got a light shower of rain but it cleared up soon after. We then went on all
the
other

It was a top day. See you when you get back.
