You should write at least 150 words.
You do NOT need to write any addresses.

Dear _________,
Answer –
Dear Tom and Jerry,
I’m writing to tell you that I recently received the holiday photos you guys mailed me.
First, let me thank you for the beautiful photos. When I saw them, the memories of the fantastic holiday were fresh again, and the pictures looked like they’d come alive. Honestly, the pictures came out stunning, especially the one in which we three are standing on the beach, and I’m thinking of framing it. Also, I want to thank you for the beautiful holiday; I enjoyed every bit of my stay with you all.
Sorry for not writing and thanking you earlier. As soon as I landed in India, I fell ill because my body couldn’t handle the sudden change in weather. Here, it is scorching hot, but in Australia, it was quite pleasant, so this change took its toll on my health. I was hospitalised for five days, and then I had to catch up on my pending work.
I want to extend my invitation to both of you to come over here to my country and let me show you my hospitality. Next month, we’ll have summer holidays, and I’ll be more than happy if you guys can come. There’s a spare room in my house with your name written all over it.
Looking forward to seeing you soon.
Keep in touch,
Paul
