Dear Liz,
My stay in Thailand has certainly been the experience of my life. 
Life is busy and exciting.Bangkok is just like any other big city with a population of 10  million and heavy traffic.I'm very lucky because my host family is in a nice quiet area outside  the city.There are Mr. and Mrs. Phairat, their son Sanan, who is 18, the daughter Chinda, who  is 16, and Grandpa and Grandma.  
I go to an international school with Sanan and Chinda.The school teaches about 70 percent  in English,and 30 percent in Thai. I've learned some spoken language,but Thai writing is very difficult.The cooking lesson is my favourite.I'm learning all about Thai food and culture People don’t use chopsticks here,but spoons and forks.When I come back,I'm going to cook you a real Thai meal.   
Last weekend we visited some temples.We also drove to Pattaya beach near Bangkok.I  thought it was great,but Sanan and Chinda say that next month they’re taking me to Phuket  Island,where the beaches are even more beautiful.The month after next,we’re going to travel  to Mr.Phairat,s hometown in the north of Thailand.The Phairats own land there,and they  have two elephants.I’m going to ride those elephants — and even wash them.Sanan and  Chinda say it’s really fun.   
I'm amazed by everything in this country,especially by the elephants.Elephants are an  important pan of Thai culture and way of life.They have been a traditional symbol(象征)of  Thailand for many years in times of war and peace.In the seventh century,a Thai king trained 20,000 elephants for battle.
I’ll tell you all about my Thai boxing(拳击)lessons next time I write.
Love,
Mandy

Put 2 February in your diary! It is World Wetlands Day! It marks the date that the
Convention(公约) on Wetlands was signed(签署)in1971.This special day was first celebrated in 1997 and it is celebrated every year.
The celebration is a call for action. It is a way to show people how important and
useful the wetlands are for people. On World Wetlands Day, people around the world take
