Activity 5
Practice the dialog with your friend.
Pay attention to the sentences in bold.
Then, answer the questions.

Chintya: What are you going to do next holiday, Bryan?

Bryan: Well, my family and I are going to Lombok. The seas are clear, calm, and warms, so we would like to go snorkeling there.

Chintya: Wow, that's great! Lombok is famous for its snorkeling spots.

Bryan: You're right. We are going to snorkel on Gili islands and see the beautiful underwater life in a natural setting. We have planned it for a long time.

Chintya: It must be interesting. How many days will you be there?

Bryan: About five days. We have browsed the Internet about tourist spots in Lombok and have decided what we are going to do there. We arrange everything ourselves.

Chintya: Why don't you use a travel agency?

Bryan: We would rather travel as backpackers because we are free to manage our time. My father has reserved hotel rooms and flight tickets for us. Meanwhile, the rest of us should prepare the items and equipment.

Chintya: Do you have snorkeling gear?

Bryan: We only have several. For more complete equipment, we would like to rent them on the spot. Besides, we will go there by plane without buying extra baggage, so we only bring necessary items.

Chintya: Right! I think your hotel will offer you snorkeling packages and the operator must have provided you with safety equipment. Have a nice trip then!

Bryan: Thanks.
