Hi Ben, Greetings from the mountains! We're staying in a little house beside a lake. The weather is sunny, but the evenings are cold. We've already walked around the lake and visited a village market. Yesterday, I bought a warm hat because I forgot mine. Tomorrow, we're going to take a short boat trip. I hope to get some good photographs of the mountains from the water. You would love this place! See you next week, Ella
