The Postcard

Dear Marie:

It's the third day of the cruise.  We went to the beach the first day.  The children played in the sand and swam in the ocean while my husband and I relaxed in the sun and drank cocktails.  I also went snorkeling and saw a lot of colorful fish. 

The food on the ship is great.  We ate at the buffet last night and in the dining room the night before.  It's a beautiful ship.  It has a huge pool which we swam in yesterday afternoon.

I hope things are going well at work.  I'll be back soon.
