After this vacation we wrote the following letter to the hotel management:
Dear Sirs and Madames,

courtesy requires this address, although we would rather write dear friends . It is the last evening of our vacation. Unfortunately we have to leave tomorrow after eleven wonderful days and nights. In the last two years we have given up a lot in order to be able to fulfill this dream and of course we were a little worried at the beginning whether it was worth it. Well, the hotel grounds are beautiful, the food is fantastic and the entertainment that never leaves boredom is stylish. But it is always the people who tip the scales. Every minute with them was a pleasure and every smile we showed we got back with interest and compound interest from everyone we met here. We deliberately do not use the word "staff", because it does not in the least do justice to the unobtrusive friendliness and helpfulness with which everyone here looked after us.

We have nothing left than to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts for this wonderful time.

Thank you
