Bonjour!（That means hello in French．）
We hope you all had a great summer．Ours was a lot of fun．We have seen so many new things and met so many wonderful people．The Frenchgave us a warm welcome and helped us get used to living here soon．We have so many things to share with all of you．We are going to send you more emails，but here are the best parts of our holiday in France so far．
We had a fantastic time seeing the Tour de France this summer．It is the most famous bicycle race in the world．The riders travel more than two thousand miles in about a month!We got a quick look at the riders as they sped past!After the race，our family rented bikes，and rode along part of the route that the cyclists used．
A few of you asked whether the French really eat snails（蜗牛）．The answer is yes．We went out to dinner the other day，and our parents ordered some．We each tried one and it didn’t taste too bad．The snails，called escargots，are served with lots of butter．They feel a little rubbery when you bite into them，but they don’t really have much taste．Mum’s favourite food here is the French pastries．Dad loves the red wine．Our favourite is the fresh bread from the shop down the street．
We went to visit the EiffelTower a few weeks ago．We went all the way to the top．It was a sunny day，so we could see for miles and miles into the distance．Dad doesn’t like heights，so he stayed at the bottom of the tower and took pictures from the ground．
We miss all of you a lot．Write back to us and let us know what is new at
