Hi Tom,

I'm just writing to tell you about our plans for the weekend. I'm really happy that you're coming to stay with me!

On Saturday morning, we're going to have breakfast and then visit the town centre. I think you'll like it because there are lots of interesting shops and beautiful places to see. In the afternoon, we could go to the cinema or play football in the park. My parents also want to take you to a nice restaurant for dinner.

On Sunday, maybe we could visit the beach. It's a beautiful place where we can swim, walk along the sea and take some photos. We can get there by bus or by train. If the weather is bad, we can stay indoors and play games or watch a film.

We're going to meet at the train station on Saturday at 6.00. I'll be waiting for you near the main entrance.

I'm looking forward to seeing you!

Best wishes,
Alex
