Letter On Asking To Join On Holiday

Dear Eli,
                Hi there. How are you? I hope you are as fit as a fiddle with your beloved family in Kuala Lumpur. We are all fine here, how are you getting along with your baby brother? I am sure you have your hands full taking care of him for your mum. Don’t worry. With enough practice, very soon you will be an expert in taking care of babies. Practice makes perfect!
                You must be wondering why I wrote to you. It has been a long time since we last contacted each other. Actually, I was just browsing through a magazine a few days ago when I spotted an advertisement about a place to have a perfect holiday. It is a place to relax and savour the beauty of the place. I have discussed with all my family members and we unanimously agreed to go there this coming school holiday. We have also decided to cordially invite you and your whole family to join us.
                You have been working very hard last year, studying for the PMR examination and then passed with flying colours. It is time for you to unwind. Take a break and give yourself a treat. As the saying goes, “All work and no play make Jack a dull boy.” I’m sure you are not like Jack, right?
                We will be camping at the campsite by a beautiful lake up in Fraser hill. We will able to enjoy ourselves in natural surroundings. Knowing you, I am sure you will have a ball being close to nature. The place is not far away from my grandfather’s house. It will take us about half an hour to reach there by car.
                Do not worry about the facilities. Everything is provided and I have checked with the management. All is in tip-top condition as it is a newly opened campsite. There is a playground for children, toilets and shower rooms. If we decided not to put up the night in the chalets, we can sleep in the tents provided. It will be fun.
                We intend to have a barbeque on the first night. Everything will be taken care by the management. They will have their workers cooking for us. We just need to enjoy ourselves without any worries. We will be treated like kings! There will be games organized for us too. All we need to do is choose which games we would like to play. Arrangements will be made for us. Swimming and canoeing are among the activities we can have there.
                Well, I hope to receive a positive reply from you soon. Tentatively, it will be on 15 Disember, 2012. If all goes as planned we will be there for three days. I hope that this holiday will go on without a hitch. Do not worry about the expenses. You do not need to fork out any money for my father said that he will pay for everything. It is a treat from him for he had just got his promotion to the post of a manager in his department. Spending the money will be worth it for the holiday will give us all a chance to spend time together and foster better relationship among our family members.
                I will be waiting anxiously for your reply. Remember to tell me how many of your family members will be able to join us so that I can book enough accommodation for all of us. Before I pen-off, please send my warmest regards to all at home. Till I hear from you, bye.

Your cousin,
Lily.
