Our e-mail for a foreign student

Hello Zoey, We look forward to seeing you here in Spain. Just wait and see; we are going to show you a lot of things. We have already made the program of the things we will do each day. Here is what we have planned:
 -Day 1: You will arrive at Madrid´s airport, and you then take a bus to Salamanca. This day you won´t do anything because you will be tired after the flight.
 -Day 2: We will visit Salamanca and show you the most important places and buildings in the city, like the cathedral and the Main Square. We will also show you the academy where you are going to learn Spanish. After that we will go home for dinner and that’s the end of the day.
 -Day 3: You will have to wake up early to go to the academy. The classes are from nine o´clock to two o´clock. After that you will have lunch in Salamanca with the other students who go to the academy, and when you have had lunch you will have free time for doing whatever you want.
 -Day 4: You will have classes in the morning and in the afternoon we will have an excursion to Zamora to see one of the famous processions which are typical for the Spanish Holy Week.
 -Day 5: You won´t go the academy because we will make another excursion to Madrid, to see famous places like the Royal Palace and the Main Square. After that we will eat there and we will come back to Salamanca late in the afternoon.
 -Day 6: You will go to class like the other days, and after that we will go to La Alberca, which is a very beautiful village in the mountains. Perhaps we can also go to La Covatilla, which is a skiing resort.
 -Day 7: You will take a bus to Madrid, and then you will take a plane in Barajas to go back to England. We hope that you will enjoy your stay here. See you soon. Best regards,
