Paragraph 2

I'm really looking forward to staying with you - thanks again for inviting me. To answer your first question, I'd love to go to the wonderful beach near your house and spend some time there. If it's sunny, perhaps we could go swimming. As you have mentioned, I'm keen on history, so it would be great if you could drive us to the nearby castle you told me about. I've found out some more information on the internet, and it sounds fascinating.
