托德：哇！
Ivan: Yeah, so it rains a lot more here too. I still can't get used to all the rain.

Todd: So, Houston is pretty close to Mexico, right?
托德：那休斯敦离墨西哥很近，对吗？
Ivan: Yeah, actually, it's a nine hour drive, well not nine, maybe six. I used to go down there back in high school. Me and my buddies 4 would go. There's no drinking age in Mexico. Beer is about 25 cents or 30 yen 5 over there.
伊凡：对，实际上，开车需要九个小时的时间，嗯，也许不是九个小时，大概六个小时吧。上高中时我曾去过墨西哥。我和我朋友去的。墨西哥对饮酒的年龄没有限制。那里啤酒只要25美分，也就是30日元。
Todd: Yeah, what do you remember about your trips to Mexico?
托德：嗯，你还记得去墨西哥旅行的事吗？
Ivan: Not much, which is why we went. We just went. It was called a border town. Basically 6 they just exist to take care of high school and college kids that want to party for a couple of nights. It's not really nice but it's cheap and it's fun.
