Hi! It's me again, Stefanny. I like your letter so much.
You told me that you live near Atlantic City. I visited that
place, it is very beautiful . I Like the beach so much
and I bought some presents for my family there, too. I slept in a
hotel near a casino while my father , mother and my
cousin where playing. I traveled three months ago. I like
also Manhattan.
Well, my friend Katia has received one letter from
one of your friends and he thinks that Lima is a place
of a mountais, however, Peru is divided in three regions : Coast
, highland and jungle. Lima is in the coast of Peru and
it is the capital city. We have many nice places to visit here.
In this moment I am going to send you some information about one
of the 24 departments of Peru ' Ancash"
The department of Ancash is located at the west
part of Peru . It is sorrounded by La Libertad,
Huanuanuco, Lima and the Pacific ocean. It has a
territory of about 36Km2. The capital of this department is
Huaraz. It is located in the coastal and highland parts. Its
climate is hot and dry.
This department was created in 1891 with the
name of Huaylas but it was replaced on february 28 th 1839 by Ancash.
The capital of Ancash was destroyed on 31st of may, 1970 by an
earthquake. More than 50000 people died.
Well I hope you like this information.

founded in 1563 with the name of Villa of Valverde.In 1569 was
moved to its actual location. In 1640 it got the name of San
Jeronimo de Ica.

Hi Caitlin,
How are you, I'm fine. Today I'm working alone.
In this opportunity I have searched about Callao and this is the information
I would like to share with you:
Callao is a Constitucional province and main port of Peru.
It is located in a bay on the west part of Lima. The port is sorrounded by
San Lorenzo's island. It is an imported center of textile, cereals, machinery,
paper and food. The industrial activity of this city is centered in refineries,
a beer factory called ¨Pilsen Callao¨. Callao also has a Technical University
that was opened in 1926.
Callao was founded in 1537 and has become one of the most
important ones in South American .
I hope we continue with our correspondence
GOOD BYE

between 10.3º to 11.º celcius
