Attached is the second of two pages of a letter sent by my great-grandmother Bronia Levin to my great-grandfather Abram Riskin, most likely while she was traveling in Italy with my grandmother Miriam. Would like assistance in its translation. Thank you.

Абассия, 30 августа 1935 года.
Дорогой Абраша.
Вчера вечером уже приехали в Аббасию, как ты видишь из штемпеля бумаги.
Теперь можешь прислать письмо прямо в этот отель.
Устроились, кажется, не плохо . Здесь будем ещё 10 дней до самого отхода парохода.
Не забудь зайти к Бираму, сказать на счёт Мерки.
Что у вас, все ли здоровы?
Я как будто заблудилась, ничего о доме, никаких вестей!
Как ты устроился без меня, живёшь наверно во всю, заседаешь и днём, и ночью, благо нет никого, кто и кричит из-за этого.
Всего хорошего, будьте здоровы.
Привет папе, маме, Лее и Павлику.
Не помню писала ли я, что в Люцерно встретилась с (Сади, Сауи, Сари) (?) Натановичем. Он, как всегда, сияет и очень доволен своей поездкой. Были ли письма из Баку?
Всего хорошего.
Броня.
=====================
Abassia, August 30, 1935.
Dear Abrasha.
We already arrived in Abbasia last night, as you can see from the postmark of the paper.
Now you can send an email directly to this hotel. We seem to have settled in well. We will be here for another 10 days until the steamer departs.
Don't forget to visit Biram and tell him about the Measurements.
What do you have, is everyone healthy?
It's like I'm lost, nothing about the house, no news! How did you get along without me, you probably live your whole life, you sit day and night, fortunately there is no one who screams because of this.
Have a nice day, be healthy. Hello to Dad, Mom, Leia and Pavlik.
I don't remember if I wrote that I met (Sadi, Saui, Sari) ? Natanovich in Lucerne.
As always, he is beaming and very happy with his trip.
Were there any letters from Baku?
Good luck.
Br.
