Dear Millie,
How are you? I will have a short holiday next week and I will visit Shanghai. It will be my second time to visit there. I book(预定) a room in the Peace Hotel. I hear it is on the Bund(外滩) and I can enjoy the Huangpu River. I will get to Shanghai on the night of March 27 and leave early on March 29. I would like to visit some places like Nanjing Road and Yu Garden in Chenghuangmiao.
Can you give me some ideas for my visit to Shanghai? I will have only one day to look around Shanghai. I will be happy if you make plans for me.
Yours
Sandy
