Hi Helen!

How are you? I'm fine! I 1) (went) to Sauran with my family last weekend. It's a beautiful ruined city. The Arabs (built) it hundreds of years ago! 2) We 3) (spent) the whole morning there. We walked around the city and we 4) (spoke) to some archaeologists. They 5) (knew) lots of things about Sauran. They 6) (told) us that, in the 14th century, it was the capital of the White Horde! We had a picnic outside in the at lunchtime, we 7) (ate) sunshine. It was very quiet and peaceful. There weren't many my people in Sauran, but we 8) (saw) eagles, horses, lizards and cute tortoises exploring the ancient city! We 9) (had) a really great time!

10) (Did you have) a nice birthday?
