Emily is talking about her vacation. Listen and number the pictures.
A: So, how was your trip to Maui, Emily? B: Oh, pretty good, mostly. A: Mostly? B: Yeah, it started off okay. I did all the usual things. You know, I went snorkeling right off the shore next to my hotel. The fish were beautiful! A: I know, I love snorkeling! B: Then I saw a hula dance---you know-traditional Hawaiian dancing. A: Sounds great. B: Anyway. On my second day. I decided to rent a car. I wanted to see some other sights on the island. A: Were you on your own? B: Uh-huh. So first I drove all the way up to the top of the volcano. I stopped to take some photos on the way. And I got some great shots of the volcano. The next day. I decided to drive all the way to Hana. A: Hana? B: Yeah. It's on the other side of the island. There are some spectacular waterfalls on the way. It's really beautiful. But it's a really long ride. Unfortunately, when I was about halfway there, I had a slight accident. A: Oh, no. Were you hurt? B: No. but it was awful. I had to leave the car and take a taxi all the way back to the hotel. It cost me an arm and a leg! A: Oh, no. What a vacation!

Oh, Bob. This is Rachel. Sorry I missed your call last night. I went out for dinner and today I've got a terrible stomachache. It must be something I ate. Anyway, I'm going to see the doctor. Don't worry-I'm sure I'll be fine. Talk to you soon. 5. Hi, Dad. This is Mary calling from Paris. Sorry I missed you. I went on a bus tour this morning and dropped my camera somewhere.

Task 1 People are describing travel experiences. Is each statement true or false? Listen and check the correct answer.
1. I met this really nice family when I was in Korea last year. I was in a restaurant, and I was having trouble understanding the menu. The wife came over and asked me what I wanted to eat and told me all about Korean food. Then they asked me to join them at their table, and they paid for my dinner. They also invited me to their house. We became friends, and we keep in touch now by e-mail. They'll take me to a famous temple the next time I go back. Isn't that fabulous? I can't wait to see that temple! 2. Once when I was in Italy. I took a bus trip from Rome to Florence. The bus was very crowded, and I had to stand most of the way. I had a couple of small bags with me. One was a backpack that had my wallet in it. I kept it in front of me for the entire trip. But when I got to Florence, I couldn't believe what had happened! Someone had cut a hole in my backpack, put in their hand, and removed my wallet. Then they took the money out and put the wallet back inside my backpack. I never noticed a thing! It really ruined my vacation because I couldn't pay to get into any museums. So now I want to go back again next summer and see all the museums I missed. 3. Last summer, I flew from London to Casablanca in Morocco to do some research on the traditional music there. Unfortunately; my bags didn't arrive with the flight. I thought they would probably arrive on the next flight, but they didn't. I had nothing to wear except the clothes I had on. Luckily the airline gave me some money to buy some extra clothes and things. The bags didn't turn up till four days later. I was really glad to get my bags back because I had a lot of important stuff inside them. But I had to wait around until they turned up, so I didn't get a chance to listen to any of the traditional music. That's why I want to get back there again sometime. 4. I was on vacation in Australia last summer when I got a terrible case of the flu. I had to stay in bed for four days and it was a week before I was feeling well enough to go out. I have a cousin in Sydney who was really kind and spent a lot of time with me until I was better. By then, I only had three days of sightseeing left before I had to leave. I saw the Sydney Opera House, and that was about it. The most awful thing is I didn't have the chance to go scuba diving. I want to go back and scuba dive there. They have the best coral reefs in the world.
