- What are you planning to do for your holiday?
- I haven't yet made up my mind. If the weather is fine, I'll go to the seaside for two or three weeks. After that I might go travelling in my ear for a week or so. And what are your plans?
- As a matter of fact I always spend my holiday in the Crimea. There's no better place for holiday making than the Crimea. Do you agree with me?
- I quite agree with you here. We have tried many sea-side places. However my wife and I prefer the Crimea. The climate is mild and the sea is beautiful.
- You have said it. The only disadvantage is that in summer there are crowds of people there. It's difficult to rent a room and to have meals at a cafe.
- You see I have no problems in this field. My cousin has been living in Yalta for many years. He is a physician . He has a nice cottage not far from the seaside. We always stay at their place when we come to Yalta.
- You are lucky. Unfortunately we haven't got any relatives in Yalta.
- I suppose I can help you with a room. I'll send a letter to my cousin and ask him to reserve a room for you well in advance.
- It will be very kind of you. I suggest that we go to the Crimea together. It will be great fun.
- Good idea. I'll talk it over with my wife and see what she thinks about it.
