Andrew: Today, we’re going to actually talk about a trip I took, ah, about 2 months ago now. And, you know, this was a travel nightmare¹. I have a travel nightmare story to share with you.

Morag: I’m doing pretty darn well. And how are you doing, Andrew?

Andrew:

Yeah, sorry about that.

Morag:

It’s totally² cool. But why was it such a nightmare?

Andrew:

Well …

Morag: And where were you going?

Andrew: Yeah. Let’s rewind all the way back to the beginning, OK?

Morag: Yeah.

Andrew: This is in … this happened in May. I had suddenly learned³ that I had a 4?day long weekend. As most people probably know, I live in Korea⁴ now. And in Korea in May there is a holiday called Children’s Day. And Children’s Day is a national holiday that university workers, like myself, get off. And this was on a Thursday. But the government decided⁵, hey, you know what, let’s make the following Friday also a holiday so that people can have a 4-day long weekend.

Morag: That’s nice.

Andrew: It was nice, right?
