Part 2B - Reading Read the conversation VICKI: Matt, I’ve just been to the travel agent and I’ve got us tickets to go to the Maldives. MATT:This is just too exciting. So, when do we set off? VICKI:The plane leaves tomorrow afternoon so we need to set off for the airport at 11am. MATT:Just let me write that down so I don’t forget. So, we leave at 11 am. Do we stop off anywhere on the way or are the flights direct?
VICKI:Well, there weren’t any direct flights, but we are very lucky. With these tickets we can stop off in Sri Lanka. So we can stop and spend two days there on our way to the Maldives. MATT:Vicki – you are brilliant. I’ve always wanted to go there. So we stop off in Sri Lanka. And, just one more thing…when do we get back? VICKI:We’ll return home in ten days time …. MATT:Wow, so we set off tomorrow afternoon, we stop off in Sri Lanka for 2 days on our way to the Maldives, and we get back in ten days time.
