Dear Nga,
How are you? I hope you are having a nice time with your
family. I and my family have just come back from a trip
to Cuc Phuong National Park in Ninh Binh Province. It is
a famous park in Viet Nam. It’s about 100okms from my
house and we got there by train. We spent a week there
and I didn’t want to leave.
Cuc Phuong National Park is very beautiful. Although it
was summer, it was very cool , temperate. And the air

was pure
In the morning, the park ranger led us on a guided hike
under the rainforest. There are many strange animals,
plants and flowers.
But I liked seeing birds best. The ranger talked about the
animals and plants which I didn’t know before.
The trip was wonderful. I was happy and relaxed.
That’s all I have time to tell you about. Write to me soon and
tell me about your news.
Your friend,
Nhi
