Answer:

Hi Sam, I hope you're well. Sorry, I didn't write sooner, but I have been on holiday in Malta. You should have come. We found a lovely house on the beach and we rented it for the four of us. It was beautiful. We also hired a jeep to see the area. One day, we decided to visit an ancient castle. While we were walking around the castle, someone called my name. Surprised, I turned around to see who it was. It was Steve, an old friend of mine from school. I had not seen him since we finished school and he had moved to another town. Steve had been studying Archeology for the last five years before he got his degree and joined an expedition. He has been working there for the last two months. Steve invited us to the camp where we met the rest of the team. Some were examining ancient vases whereas others were taking pictures of every single piece before starting to put them together. I don't think I could do this job. I'm not that patient. Anyway, we spent the rest of the days with the team and took lots of pictures. I'll show them to you when you come to visit. Well, I've got to go now. Write back soon.
