I had a wonderful tine in Nha Trang. The weather there was warm and sunny so I went to the beach most of time. People in this city were friendly and hospitable. Yesterday I visited Vinpearl Land ( vinpearl friends là cái gì vậy -.-? Mình không biết nên ghi là vinpearl land). It was very exciting and I took a lot of photos. Everything was so nice but quite expensive, so that I didn't buy so many things.

 2. They told me they (not, eat)hadn't eaten such kind of food before. 

3. He asked why we (come) had come so early.
