Dear Anne,
Thank you in advance for lending me your tour guide book. As you know last week I traveled to Turkey with one of my friends. None of us visited this beautiful country before so this book was a great help for us. It helps us finding all the tourist attractions such as palaces, burial sites, fabulous waterfalls and so on easily. Moreover, this book contains the map of the Istanbul city so we could find restaurants and shopping centers as well.
I came back from this trip yesterday so if it is ok for you I will bring your book back next Saturday around 5 p.m. This way I can spend a few hours with you. Besides I will bring the pictures of my trip. Please let me know if it is ok for you. Do not hesitate to call me on my cell phone,0912… or via my email, R@yahoo.com.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Love
Rahi
