Dear Sarah

Hello! How are you? What are you going to do on your weekend?
Saturday is my birthday! Ill be 10 years old. My favorite celebration is going out for a picnic in
the Public Garden. Established in 1879, the Public Garden is one of the most beautiful places in
Boston, United States. Why is it so special?
Its the first public botanical garden in the US. Theres a lot of biodiversity. Therere two
wonderful lakes. Theres a very large and peaceful picnic area.
But the parks main attraction is The Swan Boats. They take passengers for a 15 minute
cruise through the large lake for about 1 dollar. The Swan Boats are open from April through
December, and run daily, except during bad weather.
I hope you can visit this place one day! You will love it!
See you later!
