Hi , darling ! I have a one-month vacation saved up . How about a trip to Europe ?   I could go for that . But I'm afraid our budget is a little tight this year .   Oh , but I really need to leave this town for a change . Working day after day has worn me out . Do you have any other suggestions ?   We should probably think about going somewhere that isn't too far away . How about the countryside ? There must be many interesting places , and we could enjoy the fresh air .   Wonderful ! I think that's a great idea How soon until we can make this happen ? I can't wait !   Tomorrow I have an appointment with my dentist . What about next Monday ?   Perfect . I'II start preparing tomorrow . If we re going to drive , l'II need to fill up the tank .   No need . I think it's still plenty full . Even so , I'd rather travel by bus or train . It would cost much less than driving . Oil prices are soaring nowadays , you know .   We can take the train , that will be faster . I'II book the tickets tomorrow morning .
