1. I'm so excited about my trip to Asia. I've never been there before. First, I'm flying to Taipei from the US. I'll be spending three days there, because I hear that there's a lot to see and do. I'll also be spending three days in Seoul. I hear the nightlife there is great. Then we go from there to Hong Kong. I'm planning ro do lots of shopping there, so I hope two days is enough time to buy everything I need. I would really love to go to Beijing for a few days. But, unfortunately. this tour doesn't go there. After Hong Kong. we'll end up in Thailand for five days. So I guess I won't be able to get to Tokyo or Malaysia on this trip. Oh well. I have to save a few places to visit on my next vacation.

2. Well, our trip starts off in London. We've got a week there. Then we'll take the bus up to Oxford for two days to see friends. We also wanted to see Cambridge—I hear it's beautiful—but we won't have time this trip. Anyway, then we head to France. We have five days in Paris, which will give us time to see all of those museums. I wish we were going to spend a few days in Germany, too, but this trip doesn't include it. But we do go to Switzerland for three days. I'm really looking forward to that. Then we end up in Italy for the last five days of the tour.

3. We start off in Los Angeles. We're going to stay there for three days because we want to hit the beach and see the sights. We're not going to go to San Francisco this time. because we've been there before. Then we're off to Denver to visit my sister. We're going to stay there for a week. I hope that's enough time, because I haven't seen her since last Christmas, and we have so much to talk about. We were thinking of going to Chicago after that. but we just don't have time, so it's straight on to Washington. D.C., and New York. We've got two days in Washington and three in New York. We'd really love to get up to Boston for a couple of days. but it probably won't happen. Maybe next time.
