If we had gone by car, we would have got there more quickly. Do you prefer to travel by car, train or airplane and why? Do you agree that air travel is not always the quickest? Which is the most dangerous in your opinion?
I am planning to take driving lessons soon...

       Dear Kevin,

       Thanks a lot for your letter. Sorry I have not written for so long. I’ve been really busy lately with my work.

       Sorry to learn about the delay for your aunt’s birthday.

       Well, I think air travel is the most dangerous. I like traveling by car. So I can stop whenever I want and move on my own speed. Last summer one of my friends and I traveled to a nearby resort in our car and it was fun. We even bought some souvenirs on the way there and took pictures.

       By the way, what car will you be driving? How much time would it take for you to finish the lessons? Are you confident about driving a car in heavy traffic?

       Well, I’d better go now because I have to pic my brother from the train station.

       Please write back soon!

       Take care,

       Vlad
