Are the sentences under his message right (✔) or wrong (✘)?

Hi Grandma! We’re staying in a really great hotel. It’s got a wonderful restaurant and pool. The food is fantastic and all the waiters are really kind. We can’t play tennis outside, but I like visiting museums and there’s a really famous one in the town. We can go there tomorrow. I can’t wait! Mum’s OK, but she doesn’t like the weather. She says it’s too cold. From our window you can see the river but not the sea! We’re coming home on Saturday. I’d like to come and see you at about eight pm. I’ve got a present for you!

Text 2. “Mike’s daily routine"

Mike is an American boy. He lives in Los Angeles, California. He lives with his family in a new house. He is eleven years old and he has got an older brother, David, and a younger sister, Emma.
