Ｈi Jeannie,

I am so sorry for your friends that have no home at the  moment after a big fire happened in California.

I am curious about you went kayaking. Where is the canal? I thought you were kayaking at the beach.

Today the typhoon will hit Taiwan. The powerful storm will make landfall in the north of my country and It is already heavy raining.

The government announced we must stop work after 12 o'clock today for safety reasons. But don't worry we are ready for typhoon coming.

love you Sophia.

Hi Jeannie,

Today I read an article about "monument to undying love-Taj Mahal".

Five years ago, I went to the Taj Mahal of India with my husband.

First, I had to undergo a security check in an entrance enclosure.

Next, I walked into a big garden and I saw a large gate. I saw a very long reflecting pool in front of the Taj Mahal building. A lot of visitors near the gate were taking pictures of the reflected image.

Then, we took a walk about 10 minutes beside the pool to the building. The servant told us we had to take off our shoes before we entered the sacred areas.

I felt the builing  was very exquisite. The white marble was very bright and clean.

Finally, we went around the building several times.

Have you seen some article about the Taj Mahal?

Sophia.
