Dear Karen,
How are you? I’m going to tell you something about Toby’s adventure in Africa.
He said they would leave London on 15th July and they would fly to Morocco, in North Africa. They were going to travel on camels through the Sahara Desert. It is the biggest desert in the world---about the size of the US! He expected it would be very hot, dry and dusty there. They would be traveling by camel, with local guides, camping in tents and sleeping on the ground in their big, thick sleeping bags. He had heard that could see beautiful stars on clear nights. He would bring a torch with him so that he would be able to see in the dark. The whole trip would take six days. That meant he would have to sit on a camel for almost a week. He said how uncomfortable it was. He hoped his camel liked him!
I will send you some post cards from Toby.
Love,
Aihua
