I was on vacation last year in Paris when I ran into Mrs. Melville, my old French teacher, at the Louvre. She helped me so much when I was in school that I really wanted to do something to repay her, so I invited her to lunch. We went to a really nice restaurant and I told her to order whatever she wanted – that it was my treat. It was great talking about old times, and the food was delicious. Then, the bill came, and I opened my purse to get my credit card, but I couldn’t find it. I searched everywhere, but it was nowhere to be found. I didn’t even have enough cash to pay the bill, so in the end I had to borrow money from Mrs. Melville. I was so embarrassed. I got her address, of course, and I paid her back as soon as I could, but that’s not the point, is it?

A couple of years ago I was on vacation in San Francisco. Everything was wonderful until I got to the airport to catch my flight back home. Bad weather had canceled all flights back to Canada due to bad winds. We waited in the departure lounge for hours. It was really crowded and noisy, and everyone had lots of luggage. All we could do was sit and wait. Finally, we were able to leave and taken to nearby hotels for the night. We went back to the airport again and luckily we only had to wait a couple of hours before we were put on a flight home.

A few years ago, I went to a beach resort for the first time. It was beautiful – the softest sand I’d ever seen lined with palm trees. On the first day I found the perfect spot on the beach. I put on my sun lotion and fell asleep. I woke up hours later, completely sunburned all over. I had the worst sunburn of my life and couldn’t spend my five-day vacation in my hotel room, covered in cream. Then, to make things worse, I started peeling. The moment I got back home, I went back to work with a red peeling face. What a nightmare!

Use _________ bread to make the sandwiches

Which food group?

Last year, we decided to visit our daughter. She was living in Spain at the time, wasn’t she? Anyway, we wanted to surprise her, so we made all the arrangements ourselves. Our plane landed in Madrid on time, then we took a bus to Valladolid. As it was quite late in the evening, we called our daughter to tell her we’d arrived safely. It was only then that she told us she lived in another city, and we were in Valdepenas – not Valladolid! Our daughter did come and pick us up, but she had to drive more than 150 miles to get us! Much longer than we had planned!

I had a terrible year, so I decided to treat myself to a cruise. I chose the most luxurious one I could afford – a week of island hopping in the Caribbean. What I didn’t take into consideration, however, was that it was the rainy season. The seas were really rough, it rained almost nonstop, and I got seasick. I spent most of the time in bed or in the bathroom, throwing up. I couldn’t eat or drink anything except water. So much for the gourmet food! What a waste!
