Task 1: How I plan my Holidays
When I plan my holidays, I like to go where I haven’t been to before. How do I choose? The
Internet is a good source of basic information. All resorts¹ and hotels have websites and offer
special prices through them. You can often book rooms cheaper on the Internet than in person.
Sometimes you can get coupons³ that will give you a cut in the usual price. For example, I have
visited Sand Beach many times. But I’d never stayed in its old town. Well, I got a coupon² for a
room at half price at the Grand Hotel there. I discovered that the old town had antique⁴ shops and
was generally an interesting area. I also like fine food, so I search out information on good.
restaurants and try to have meals in them. Some planning can prevent a holiday from becoming a
disaster and with a bit of luck make it an experience of a lifetime.
