Dear Ajay and Sunita,...

Thanks so much for your kind letter and the lovely photos of my holiday in Mumbai. Sorry for the delay in acknowledging your mail, but your package arrived just as I was about to leave town on a business trip...

Looking at the photos brings back so many happy memories of our time together and the excellent hospitality you extended to me...

These good memories gave me an idea. I know you've always wanted to visit Canada. Why don't you plan a holiday and stay with me this summer...

Again, Thank you both for the beautiful holiday and the photos on my wall. Now, I'm looking forward to hearing from you...

Warm wishes,...

Carol...
