Hi, Fay,

At the moment, I'm in Churchill in Canada with my family. Churchill is near the Atlantic Ocean. It is famous for its polar bears. Every autumn, the polar bears come to Churchill on their way to the ocean. They wait near the town for the ocean to become ice and then they walk on the ice to look for food. Polar bears make holes in the ice and catch seals. The water used to become ice by October, but now the water becomes ice later in the year. Two days ago, we saw the polar bears. They are fantastic and I took some great photos.

See you soon!

Love

Brenda

My favourite restaurant is Mario's. It's the best Italian restaurant in town. You can have pasta, pizza and ice cream. The food is always fresh and it isn't expensive. The waiters are very good and help you choose delicious food. It's open from 11.00 in the morning to 1.00 at night. The restaurant is near the shopping centre, so it's easy to find. Come and have a good meal.
