A letter from summer camp


Hello mother, hello father.
Here I am at Camp Granada.
Camp is very entertaining kul.
We'll have some fun — if it stops raining.

I went hiking with Joe Spivy.
He developed poison ivy svår allergi.
Do you remember (kommer ni ihåg)  Leonard Skinner?
He got food poisoning matförgiftning  last night after dinner.

All the counselors  lägerledare  hate the waiters kypare.
And the lake sjön  has alligators krokodil-djur.
The head coach wants no sissies veklingar..
So he reads to us from something called Ulysses (en barn-förbjuden bok).

Now I don't want that this should scare you förskräcker er.
But my bunkmate rumskamrat  has malaria.
You remember Jeffrey Hardy?
They're about to organize a search party skallgångskedja.

Take me home. Oh mother! Oh father!
Take me home. I hate Granada.
Don't leave me out in the forest.
I might get eaten by a bear.

Take me home! I promise I will not make noise.
I will not mess up smutsar ner  the house.
Oh please don't make me stay stanna.
I've been here one whole day.

Dearest father, darling mother.
How's my precious älskad  little brother?
Let me come home, if you miss me.
I would even let Aunt faster/ moster  Bertha hug and kiss me.

Wait a minute. It's stopped hailing häglar.
Guys are swimming. Guys are sailing.
Playing baseball. Gee, that's better.
Mother, father kindly disregard bortse från  this letter.
