Hi guys!

Here you have my power point. It's the project of unit 5.

E-MAIL

Hi guys!!
This is the e-mail I wrote whit Rocío in English class:

Hi, we are Alba and Rocío and we are going to be your landladies here in Villamayor.

We are really glad to meet you Louis and Stan, we haven’t spoken to you that much but we think you guys are amazing. We think we are going to get on really well.

 We’ve heard that you guys are from Doncaster, right? It’s a nice place, just as beautiful as our town.

Since you are used to the cold, we suppose, maybe it would be a good idea to go to an ice park near Villamayor.  We don’t exactly know where we are going to take you, but it doesn’t mind though, because we can discuss it together, it sounds good to you?

We think that the best clothes to bring here are winter clothes, because in this zone when it comes to winter, it is really cold.

Monday: On Monday you arrive, so it just left a few hours and we can’t do anything else because you’ll be very tired.

Tuesday: We’ll wake up a little bit late, because we are not very early-rising people. We will have breakfast at home and then we’ll go to visit all the interesting monuments in Salamanca. We’ll eat in Salamanca too, and then we’ll go wherever you want. We’ll do the same on Wednesday and Thursday, because we don’t have enough time to see all the interesting things in Salamanca.

On Friday, we’ll stay at home until the night, when we will go to different discos until we see the sun.

On Saturday we will relax at home and we will have a film’s night. We’ll order something to eat home, if that’s okay.

On Sunday, sadly, you’ll have to return to Doncaster so we’ll only have the morning to say goodbye.

We are looking forwards to seeing you. Hope you are alright, bye. Xx.
