I say, Geoff, how was your holiday?0:17
To be honest, it was somewhat disappointing.0:20
I remember you'd booked a very good hotel on the coast.0:25
It sounded so promising.0:29
Unfortunately, certain things went wrong from the very start.0:32
What are you talking about?0:36
First, we had problems getting there.0:37
Our flight was delayed because of some emergency at the airport, so we nearly missed our ferry.0:40
And both my mom and sister got really nervous and annoyed and I had to calm them down.0:45
You've always been good at it.0:51
As far as I understand, you made it to the ferry and got to the place safe and sound.0:53
The sea was stormy and Tracy was seasick all the way to dry land.1:00
The hotel turned out to be not so comfortable as we hoped it would be and quite a distance from the beach.1:06
Didn't they promise a gorgeous view in their prospect?1:13
The view was beautiful, only it wasn't a view of the sea.1:18
Advertisements can't always be trusted.1:22
Did the weather smile on you?1:25
Two rainy days and 10 days of hot and sunny weather.1:28
We swam a lot and spent most of the time on the beach.1:32
When I say we, I mean myself and mom.1:36
Because Tracy got sunburned on the very first day we came to the seaside and even stayed in bed for some time with a running temperature.1:38
Didn't you and your mother warn her about possible sunburns?1:48
She just wouldn't listen.1:55
Typical of a rebellious teenager, isn't it?1:56
I was so happy that mom was there.2:00
But for her, I would have packed my bag and run away as soon as I could.2:02
Tracy kept complaining all the time about being bored.2:06
There was nothing to please her.2:10
I'm sorry you felt that way, Geoff.2:14
Now I understand why you never emailed to me and never gave me a call.2:16
You didn't want to admit that the holiday was far from ideal.2:21
No, Kate, you don't understand.2:26
The worst thing was that the telephone connection was bad.2:28
And believe it or not, there was no Internet.2:32
