Dear Anton,
I'm writing to you from London. This is really a great city with its old cathedrals, churches, palaces and museums . I took some pictures of London. Most of all I enjoyed going on а river trip down the Thames. We saw the Houses of Parliament along the north bank of the Thames. The clock tower of the Houses of Parliament is famous for its big hour bell known as «Big Ben».  We saw the Tower of London near Tower Bridge. 
 We also visited  Buckingham Palace where the Queen lives.  Tonight we are going to the London Eye and Trafalgar Square. By the way, we are lucky with the weather. No rain! The days are warm and sunny. I enjoy doing the sights very much. When I return home come to me to see all the pics. 
See you soon,
Sasha

It looked as if a huge machine had passed through them. From satellite pictures it became clear that it was connected with that unknown radio signal. We started our search...
