Part1

r = Rosa м = Mark

r: So anyway, we decided to have a really good holiday - a 'dream holiday' in the Caribbean, because we'd always wanted to go there. So we saved our money up for months and months, and booked this holiday in a place called San Antonio. It cost over a thousand pounds each, but we wanted to do something really special so we booked it for two weeks in May, because all the brochures said that the weather's beautiful there in May ...

m: We were flying from Gatwick airport, and the flight was overnight ... leaving Gatwick late at night, and arriving in San Antonio the next morning, or that was the idea, anyway! But when we arrived at the airport they told us that because of bad weather in the Caribbean, the flight was delayed until the next morning. So we had to spend the night at the airport, sleeping on the floor, and we finally got on the plane the next morning twelve hours late!

r: But that was just the beginning. On the plane they told us that the bad weather over the Caribbean was actually a hurricane -Hurricane George - and that we couldn't fly to San Antonio. We had to go to the capital city instead, and stay in a hotel there for the night, until the hurricane passed. Anyway, we weren't too worried, we thought - well it's only one night... and they told us that we were going to a five-star hotel, next to the beach, with a swimming pool, so we were quite happy at that point...

Part 2

м: Anyway, we arrived at the hotel, the Hotel Paradiso it was called, what a joke! They said it was a five-star hotel, but I wouldn't give it one star! It was just awful.. I don't know how to describe it... it was an awful building, yes, it was next to the sea, but it wasn't a beach! Just a few rocks, and the sea was so dirty you couldn't swim in it. There were big ships travelling past, and the sea was all polluted and brown, it looked horrible.

r: So we went to look at the swimming pool, but that was no better. It wasn't a nice blue colour, like you'd expect. It was a sort of greeny-black colour and as we looked at it we could see things moving about in it, and we looked more closely and we realised it was full of frogs. There were hundreds and hundreds of frogs in it. So after that obviously we didn't use it.

m: And then there was the food. Do you remember the food?

r: I'll never forget it! The first morning, we went downstairs for breakfast, expecting to have you know, the usual things you get in hotels, bread, marmalade, fruit, coffee, and we were very surprised instead to see lots of different types of vegetables, carrots, peas, cabbage and a big bowl of lettuce! But anyway, I was really, really hungry so I decided to have some of the lettuce until I saw that it was moving! The leaves of lettuce were slowly moving around the bowl, and I looked a bit more closely and saw that the lettuce bowl was full of ants, hundreds of them, and there were so many that they were actually moving the lettuce leaves! After that, we didn't eat in the hotel again. We didn't want to.

m: The worst part though, was when the hurricane arrived. That was really frightening. It was a fifteen-storey hotel so you felt really terrified with all that wind, and rain, and the windows banging, and the trees crashing outside.. It was terrible.

r: And then they told us that because of the hurricane, there were no flights to San Antonio, and that we had to stay there for another three days, three more days in that place! There was nothing to do! Nowhere to go! We couldn't eat the food! It was noisy and dirty. We just couldn't believe that it could happen.

m: So when we finally arrived in San Antonio, we were five days late. And the worst thing was that Hurricane George had never arrived there. The weather had been perfect in San Antonio all the time!

3-6

A Is there a problem?

В Yes. I'm sorry, but your US entry visa has expired.

A Can I get one in New York?

В No. You have to apply from outside

the USA.

A So I can't get on this flight?

В I'm afraid not. If we take you to New York, the immigration authorities won't let you in.

A I got in from Toronto late and I've missed my connection to Newcastle.

В If there's space, you can have a seat on the next flight.

A Good, but I mustn't be in the smoking section. I'm allergic to smoke.

В That's all right.

A What about my luggage?

В You don't have to do anything about that. We'll transfer it to the plane for you.

A Thanks.

A I’m afraid it’s overbooked.

В But I booked last week.

A I'm very sorry.

В Look. I must be in Paris by ten. If there's a seat in economy, give me that.

A I'm afraid the whole plane's full. The next flight doesn't arrive till 935. Is that too late?

В No, it's all right.

A I'll see if there's a seat.

В What happens if there isn't?

A Don't worry. We'll get you a seat with another airline if we have to.

3-7

Emma Chris! How was the holiday?

Chris Don't ask.

Emma Why? What happened? Wasn't it 'the holiday of a lifetime'?

Chris It was absolutely fantastic. We went everywhere - Disneyworld, the Epcot centre, the Kennedy

Space Centre. The kids had a great time, Amanda had a great time, and for once so did I ... until

the last day, anyway.

Emma Why, what happened?

Chris We got robbed! Would you believe we were robbed by highway robbers. Highway robbers in

the 21st century! And they were very polite - it was like a game to them.

Emma Highway robbers?

Chris Yes, it was really bad luck. We'd been really careful during the holiday, and we never really

felt at all uncomfortable. Everywhere we went people were very polite, and friendly, and

helpful. We just relaxed and enjoyed the holiday.

Emma And?

Chris Well, it all happened on the way home. We were driving to the airport - I'd finally got used to

driving on the wrong side of the road- when suddenly a big old car bumped into the back of us.

It happened so fast - the kids were thrown back into their seats and Amanda screamed. I didn't

really know what was happening. Anyway, before I had time to do anything, he bumped me

again. I was pretty angry, I can tell you. I stopped the car and so did he. I wasn't really

thinking, I just got out of the car and started calling him an idiot. That's when I saw four big

guys getting out, and one of them had a baseball bat.

Emma Ouch!

Chris Exactly. I thought 'it looks like I'll be needing the medical insurance after all', but no. The guy

with the bat just said 'Now stay cool and you won't get hurt. We'll just empty the trunk and be

on our way' It took me a second to realize he meant the 'boot' and that he was going to rob us.

Emma You're joking.

Chris I wish I was. Anyway, they told Amanda and the kids to stay in the car, not that they were

going to get out, and told me to open the boot. They took everything out of it - the luggage, of

course, our coats, even the spare tyre. They didn't take our souvenirs and things-they were

in the back with the kids. And then they put everything into their car and drove off.

Emma So Amanda and the kids were OK?

Chris Oh yes. We were all fine - a bit shaken up but fine. It didn't take long for the police to arrive.

They looked after us, got us to the airport on time and so on, but it was a terrible way to end

the holiday.
