Well, here I am in India, and tinally l’ve found time to sit down and 0.........y
write it a letter to you. I am staying in the port City of Goa, enjoying 00...... it
a few days of rest up aíter a very hectic tortnight spent travelling across 1.............
the country. The people of Goa are proud of the fact and that they 2...............

with the vvords ‘Goa, a place where time moves more slovvly’. lt’s 4.............
a place to sit on the beach, take things away easy and sample the 5.............
delicious tocal food. In fact, the only real disadvantage of the such relaxed 6.............
atmosphere is how long it takes to get served in any of the restaurants. 7.............
It is quite common to have to wait a couple of hours for get a meal to 8..............
turn up. Even things that are quick to cook can take an age time. The 9..............
other day I decided ordered fried pravvns, which I thought couldn’t take 10...........

hole in the sand, and then let it die down a bít betore that he could 12............
even begin to think about cooking them the pravvns. Seaíood Is the local 13...........
speciality and so they were certainly very worth vvaiting for. I can’t 14...........
remember the last time I enjoyed a meal so too much. Anyvvay who’s in 15..........
a hurry? Not me!
