When is your vacation going to start ?   I'll be leaving on the fifth of August for the vacation   Oh , that's only a few days from now ! How many weeks are you going to be taking ?   I'm taking two weeks now . but I want to save the other week and take it sometime during the winter .   Where are you going now .   To the beach   Have you made your hotel reservation yet ?   Oh , I don't need to do that . I'll be staying with friends   You're lucky . It's hard to find a place to stay at the beach in August   Just think , in a few days , I'll be swimming and lying in the sun and just taking it easy .
