Hi Billy,
Well, I’m home from Africa. The late flight from Paris caused some problems at first but the holiday was
great.
Because (1) (we/never/visit) that part of the world before, (2) (we/ask) the holiday company
to book us seats on the bus to the city centre to meet the tour manager. Our plane was an hour late and we ran through
the airport to the car park but when we arrived the bus (3) (just/leave). We got a taxi to the main square and
found the company’s local office, but the stuff (4) (already/go) home for the day.
We (5) (not/bring) our mobiles, because they don’t work in that country. At last we found a
post office and luckily it (6) (not/shut) yet, so we called the company’s head office in Canada.
In ten minutes the tour manager was with us. He (7) (go) to the airport to meet us, because he (8)
(realize) our plane was late, but we (9) (not/see) him. Anyway, he took us to the hotel
he (10) (book) for us and bought us dinner. So everything was fine in the end. And our trip to the jungle
was amazing! I’ll show you the photos when I see you.
