Hi Edward! How was your week ? I was in Paris with my mum, my dad and my big brother for a week. It was really interesting. Paris is a city in the north of France, about 32 kilometres from Disney Land. It's got lots of interesting things to see. My favourite place was Eiffel Tower. It's about a hundred and fifty-seven years old ! The city's also got a cathedral called Notre Dame. There are lots of big and beautiful restaurants and shops too. Where were you at the week?

Love, Marina.
