Hi, Mary!
How are you? I miss you so much!
I arrived in Rome last week and I’m having a lot of fun. This morning my parents and I woke up at 8:00 and had a great breakfast at the hotel. Afterwards, I walked a little and saw many tourists (many from Russia and China) and even some famous people!

“The Little Prince”, now, is a movie
