National Day is just around the corner. Many people travel during the holiday, so buying train tickets and booking a hotel in advance are things to consider before setting out.
David, National Day is just around the corner. What are your plans?
I’m thinking of going to Hangzhou for two or three days. I’ve never been to West Lake, and I’ve heard it’s beautiful there in autumn.
There may be a lot of people going to Hangzhou during the National Day holiday. Have you bought your tickets yet?
Not yet. I checked yesterday, and the tickets were almost sold out, so I’m a little worried. What about you, Ms. Liu?
I’m not planning to go anywhere far. Work has been pretty busy lately, so I’d like to rest at home for a day first, then take a walk in a nearby park.
That sounds nice, too. There are people everywhere during the holiday, so staying home to read and do some cooking can be quite relaxing.
Right. If you really want to go to Hangzhou, you’d better book your train tickets and hotel early; otherwise, they may be more expensive during the holiday.
Okay, I’ll check the train tickets tonight. If I can’t get a ticket, so be it—I’ll go somewhere closer instead.
