Her Canadian cousin Rosemary is also with them. She is drawing flowers. She's very pretty. She's tall and slim and she has got long wavy brown hair. Her parents are in Toronto.
There are many people in the park. Some men are running, two girls are walking their dogs, and an old man is skating! And he can do that quite well.
