Dear Susan
I'm writing you this letter from the
Sahara I'm in Tamanrasset ,south east of Algeria. I'm spending nice holidays
I arrived here two weeks ago. I've already visited the Tassili and seen cave
paintings. They show us the early people civilization .They carved, drew and
painted wild animals and scenes of daily life.
Here, people are generous and
food is delicious. You know, I've ridden a camel. I can't believe my trip is
over but I 'll return soon .
Yours John
