Sie haben selbstverständlich recht und ich bin sehr glücklich, dass Sie
mir Ischgl genannt haben, das vielleicht
gerade der Ort ist, den ich suche.

Ich schreibe jedenfalls an den genannten Gasthof. Vorläufig also
herzlichen Dank für Ihre wertvollen Ratschläge.

Dear revered friend,
1
Of course you are right; and I am very happy that you mentioned Ischgl to me, which is perhaps just the place
that I am seeking.
2
I shall in any event
write to the hotel you mention. For the time being, then, cordial thanks for your valuable
suggestions.
With best greetings from the two of us to the two of
you,
