Hello guys,
I wrote a letter to my friend but I am not sure if it's grammatically correct and I would really appreciate if you kindly provide your feedback on this letter.
Dear Paul,
Hope you are doing well. I am writing to apologize for being not able to meet you when I visited your city last month. Unfortunately, due to some unavoidable circumstances, I had to cancel our meeting.
Let me explain my situation in more detail. As you already know, my visit to Kingston was for business purpose and was meant to last for two working days. However, it got extended for reasons beyond my control and my weekends were taken by additional conferences. I initially scheduled those weekends to spend time with you but I couldn't make it.
In the first week of next month, I will visit Kingston again for two days workshop and my evenings will be free. Would it be possible for you to meet me this time? I would like to take you out for dinner.
Once again, I regret not meeting you last time. Hope, you will forgive me.
I can't wait to see you again!
Yours faithfully,
Smith
Thank you for your help guys:)

I can't see any significant mistakes. I would change one thing, though: "I initially scheduled those weekends to spend time with you but I couldn't make it." is better as "I had originally scheduled those weekends to spend time with you, but I couldn't make it."
It reads more like a business letter as compared to a friendly personal one.
Dear Paul,
How's everything going? Honestly, I am really embarrassed and sorry that things didn't work out on my trip to Melbourne. I was so looking forward to meeting up and talking about the new things in our lives, just like old times. What happened was that my company extended the conference
