Solution

95, Rajaji Street,
Donbivali east - 20
15th May 2019, 

Dear pooja,

I am delighted to write to you about my visit to our ancestral house. Last Saturday I had gone there with my parents. It is an old house built with granite stones. There are a lot of trees and garden plants in the garden. My grandparents still live there. There was an old swing beside the house. I started swinging for some time. 1 found some of my toys and dolls. I remembered my childhood days. I took some of them with me. I wish to spend my vacation there. I realized that rural life is comfortable than city life. We who live in the towns and cities miss the comforts a lot. Well, convey my love and regards to your mom and dad.

yours lovingly
Satya Saha.

To,

pooja,
Bihar.
