Dear Granny,
believe it or not, this is the second letter .
I have written to you this week.
This morning we left Florence ( I loved immensely). I came to Rome we will spend the next three days. The hotel we are staying at is not far from the Colosseum, I can see from my bedroom window.
So far everything has been perfect. The boys and girls are in the group seem to be nice; the coach we are travelling is very comfortable. The weather is gorgeous, Jane, our group leader, has been to Italy several times, says the temperature is unusually warm from March.
I've made friends with a boy hair is as long as mine, he is also fair-haired. We look like brother and sister.
Tomorrow we're going to visit the old ruins of Rome I've studied about in my history book. Wait for my next letter.
Thank you for offering me this marvellous trip. If it hadn't been for you, I wouldn't be here.

Much Love

Frances

For centuries there has been a persistent belief in a great civilisation was completely wiped out and lost to the world. This civilisation, is said to have disappeared suddenly and completely, has been called Atlantis.
Some historians, claim that the original site of Atlantis was in the Eastern Mediterranean, support their theory with the evidence of a great cataclysm off the coastline of Greece. It may have been an eruption of an exceptional force or perhaps a gigantic earthquake destroyed several islands and must have seriously affected the mainland.
Other historians claim that Atlantis was situated in the North Atlantic sea, near the Canary Island. Yet another theory places Atlantis off the shore of southern North America, near the notorious "Bermuda Triangle" strangely precise roads of stone lie under the waves.
Probably the truth will never be known, but the myth of Atlantis, has lasted for so long, is one of the most fascinating mysteries of the world.

When I came into the bar, I noticed a fat man was sitting in a dark corner. He reminded me of an old school mate I didn't like very much. This old school mate of mine used to come near me and touch me with plump fingers were always sticky and dirty. And he also used to play stupid jokes he was the only one in the class to enjoy. I sat on a stool at the corner but I could see him in the mirror was in front of me, behind the counter.
After a while, a woman had been sitting at another table stood up and went towards him. She was not the sort of woman you would expect to see in such a place: she was refined, elegant, with an intellectual air.
The man, hands were shaking slightly, greeted her and invited her to sit at his table. They obviously knew each other. He started writing something on a small notebook he had taken out of his pocket. She read it, then tore it into small pieces and burnt the pieces in the big ashtray was in from of her.
Curiously is part of my job, I'm a private detective. A lot of questions formed in my mind: Was he really the person I used to know?
What was the relationship between him and the woman was talking to him?
Wgat did he write on the paper she burnt?
Is he trying to blackmail a woman life he has been spying?
