Dear Tom,
Hello from sunny Spain! The weather’s great and we’re planning to stay for another week. We hope to visit a bullfight tomorrow – not sure if I’ll enjoy to watch that! Mum refuses going, but Dad agreed to take us. Spanish food tends are a bit spicy, but I’ve managed finding some things I really like. I promise  to get you a souvenir if I can afford buying one!
Take care.
Wish you were here!
James
