Dear Sheila ,

In your last letter , you asked me to tell you about all the things I did during my summer vacation .

We went to Vancouver ( 1 ) ____________________ I have some old friends ( 2 ) ____________________ I haven't seen for about three years . My friend Tim , ( 3 ) ____________________ mother I wrote about in my last letter to you , came with me and we had a great time . We flew into Vancouver on Monday 24th , ( 4 ) ____________________ was also my birthday .

The first thing we did was to visit the wonderful aquarium in the city center ( 5 ) ____________________ there are three killer whales and a whole crowd of seals , penguins and dolphins . We arrived in the late afternoon ( 6 ) ____________________ all the animals are fed so it was wonderful to see the dolphins leaping out of the water to get the fish ( 7 ) ____________________ they love to eat so much .

The following day , ( 8 ) ____________________ was cloudy and rainy unfortunately , we went to a museum ( 9 ) ____________________ they have some dinosaur skeletons ( 10 ) ____________________ local people have found in the area . The horrible weather never improved all day so we visited a superb seafood restaurant later in the afternoon and had an early dinner . The waiters , ( 11 ) ____________________ were all dressed in traditional fishermen's clothes , were very friendly and told us about the history of the restaurant ( 12 ) ____________________ name was The Jolly Whaler . The restaurant , ( 13 ) ____________________ has been open since 1888 , was once visited by the American President J . F . Kennedy and his wife Jackie .

The skies were blue on Thursday and we spent some time out on the sea in a large boat ( 14 ) ____________________ we hired . I caught a big fish ( 15 ) ____________________ the captain said was the biggest he'd seen this year . I felt very proud ! We left on Thursday evening after a mini - vacation ( 16 ) ____________________ helped me to relax a lot and now I have returned to work .

The next time ( 17 ) ____________________ you write to me , you must tell me about YOUR last vacation .

Bye for now Sheila ,
