ALBERT PARK
Albert Park is located only three kilometers from the Melbourne city center. It is a 225 hectare sporting and recreational park.
The park is a beautiful, relaxing, and fun place to spend the day. You can enjoy a picnic or barbecue at one of the nine picnic areas. There is also a large lake which is home to a gorgeous family of swans and is a lovely place to take a walk. If you are more adventurous, you can take some lessons at the yacht and rowing club or hire a boat just for fun and go for a paddle.
Albert Park is host to some of Melbourne's most exciting events. In May, the 'Million Paws Walk' sees many dogs play and run through the park with their owners to raise money for charity.

Dear Truong,
I am sorry I couldn’t write to you earlier because I was very busy. Now, we’re staying in a small hotel near a shopping area in Hai Ba Trung District. Near my hotel, there’s a cinema, a post office, a supermaket and some cafes. There are some big shops at the end of the street. It is also very noisy here because there’s always a lot of traffic.
In my hometown, I live in a quieter street. There are some small shops, a school and a post office in my neighbourhood but there aren’t any parks and cinemas. The streets are narrower but they are cleaner and there isn’t so much traffic. The air is much fresher, too. And every house has a backyard and a frontyard.
Love,
Gia Han
