(The phone rings.)
Lucy: Hello.
Jeff: Hey
Lucy, it's Jeff.
Lucy: Hey, welcome back. How was your vacation?
Jeff: Oh, it was great. The seven days in New York was a blast1.
Lucy: Oh, yeah? Did you do any sightseeing or just visit with friends?
Jeff: I got to do both, actually. First, I saw my friend Edmundo who just moved there. He hadn't seen much of the city himself so we went to all the tourist spots. We got a guidebook and went to the major museums, saw a play, went to a concert in Central Park, and took the Staten Island Ferry2. We did all of that in a day and a half. It was a whirlwind, but we got to see a lot.
Lucy: A day and a half?! You guys must have been exhausted3.
Jeff: Yeah, we were. But, the rest of my trip was pretty low key. My friends Pat4 and Billie rented a car and we took a road trip to Upstate New York to visit some other friends of ours.
Lucy: Did you have to stay over in a hotel along the way, or did you drive straight through ?
Jeff: We didn't bother with booking hotel rooms so we just drove6 straight there. It wasn't that far.
Lucy: How long did you stay there?
Jeff: We were only there two days and we drove back and got back last night. My flight was this morning at 8 a.m. The worst part of the whole trip was that my flight was cancelled. I was rebooked onto another flight that had a three-hour layover in Chicago. That was a major pain.
Lucy: It sounds like it. Well, I'm glad you made it back okay. And, you even have the weekend to rest up before work on Monday.
Jeff: Yeah, I'll need it. I've got to catch up on my sleep!
