Subject: Your trip
Hi Sofia,
You’re going to be here next weekend! I’m very happy because you’re going to see St. Petersburg during the White Nights. It’s light for about 24 hours in June. We live outside all day and all night.
So, here’s the plan. On Friday evening. I’m going to meet you at the airport and then take you out to dinner. We’re going to eat outside at Marketplace. It’s my favorite restaurant.
On Saturday, we’re going to look at art at the Street Art Museum. And, of course, we can go shopping on Nevsky Prospect. And then in the evening, we’re going to get together with some of my friends in Kirov Park. We can take a walk in the park, and then we’re going to have a picnic at midnight!
What else do you want to do? I’m not going to be home tonight, but we can talk tomorrow. See you soon!
Yana
