We didn’t enjoy the journey because the sea was very rough. When we got to the port, many people were seasick.

A

No lo pasamos muy bien durante el viaje porque el mar estaba muy agitado. Cuando llegamos al puerto, mucha gente estaba mareada.

Q

What a long journey! I don’t like driving on motorways. The service stations are very bad and the petrol they sell is very expensive.

A

¡Qué viaje tan largo! No me gusta conducir en las autopistas. Las estaciones de servicio son malísimas y la gasolina que venden es muy cara.

A

Siento llegar tan tarde. Hubo un retraso y pasamos tres cuartos de hora de pie en el andén porque no había asientos en la sala de espera.
