Dear Saleem,
I’m on a school trip to Jordan, and we’re staying in Ajloun. I’m having a great time there with my friends. There are lots of hills and valleys. There is a forest, too. There are lots of plants and animals in the forest and many animals live there. There’s a famous castle in Ajloun. It’s a nice city.
Ajloun is in the north of Jordan. It is very cold in winter. It’s colder than Riyadh. It snows in winter in Ajloun. There aren’t any skyscrapers there.
Write again soon.
Raed
