Dear Aunt Lidia,

Thank you for your message about the spring festival in our town. I wish you could visit this year; however, your clinic schedule looks full until June. Therefore I will describe the events so you can picture them from afar.

Preparations began in March. Volunteers painted banners; moreover, the school choir rehearsed folk songs after classes. In contrast, last year rain cancelled the parade, and as a result organisers moved stalls indoors. Although weather remains unpredictable, we rented tents just in case.

The opening ceremony starts on Saturday at ten. The mayor will speak briefly; nevertheless, most people come for the food stalls. Furthermore, local farmers sell honey, cheese, and early strawberries. On the other hand, vegan options expanded this season, which pleased my roommate.

Children enjoy separate activities. Craft tables open near the library; therefore families can rest while kids paint masks. Although queues form quickly, tokens limit waiting times. In addition, a puppet show runs hourly in the small theatre.

Music fills the square by afternoon. Brass bands alternate with acoustic duos; however, volume rules keep evenings neighbour-friendly. Consequently, loud concerts finish before nine. Moreover, silent fireworks replaced traditional ones, reducing stress for pets.

I volunteered at the information desk on Friday. Many tourists asked for maps; therefore we printed simplified routes in three languages. Although my shift was long, meeting visitors from other regions felt rewarding. Furthermore, I practiced explaining directions with clear linking words.

Sunday closes with a community meal. Long tables stretch along the canal; nevertheless, everyone brings a dish to share. As a result, the meal costs little for the council. In contrast, restaurant bookings nearby still sell out because visitors extend their stays.

If your schedule loosens, the guest room is ready. Train tickets are cheaper three weeks ahead; moreover, I can meet you at the station. Although April nights are cool, the heated blanket you left still waits in the cupboard.

Please write when you can. I miss our long talks; however, letters keep us close until the next visit.

With love,
Sofia

Postscript: The festival programme is online. Therefore you can watch a short video of last year's dance group. Although video lacks the smell of fresh bread, it might brighten your break between patients.
