A: So, how was your trip to Maui, Emily?
B: Oh, pretty good, mostly.
A: Mostly?
B: Yeah. it started off okay. I did all the usual things. You know. I went snorkeling right off the shore next to my hotel. The fish were beautiful!
A: I know, I love snorkeling!
B: Then I saw a hula dance—you know— traditional Hawaiian dancing.
A: Sounds great.
B: Anyway. On my second day. I decided to rent a car. I wanted to see some other sights on the island.
A: Were you on your own?
B: Uh-huh. So first I drove all the way up to the top of the volcano. I stopped to take some photos on the way. And I got some great shots of the volcano. The next day, I decided to drive all the way to Hana.
A: Hana?
B: Yeah. It's on the other side of the island. There are some spectacular waterfalls on the way. It's really beautiful. But it's a really long ride. Unfortunately, when I was about halfway there. I had a slight accident.
A: Oh, no. Were you hurt?
B: No, but it was awful. I had to leave the car and take a taxi all the way back to the hotel. It cost me an arm and a leg!
A: Oh, no. What a vacation!
