Mom got a phone call today from Uncle Frank, who lives in England. Uncle Frank is coming to Taiwan next month on a business trip and plans to visit us in Kaohsiung for three days. Mom said Patrick, my cousin, is coming too. Patrick was born in England and grew up there. Mom wants me to take Patrick to places. I think we'll go to Hsitzu Bay. The beach there is nice. Sometimes you can even find seashells there! We can have tea and cake in a teahouse nearby. I read that English people love to drink tea!
