A Visit to Bangkok


A: Hi, Ellen. How was your vacation?


B: Great! I went to Bangkok.


A: Really? Why did you decide to go there?


B: Well, I have a cousin who lives there. She's been trying to get me to take a vacation down there for a long time, and so, finally, she talked me into it.


A: I've seen some pictures of Bangkok -- the architecture there is really interesting, isn't it?


B: Yes, it's incredible 2, especially the Grand Palace. The Buddhist 3 temples, too, are very impressive 4. And I love the spicy 5 Thai food and tropical 6 fruits there.


A: How was the weather when you were there?


B: That's about the only thing I didn't enjoy. It was really hot and sticky 7. In fact, April is its hottest month. The best time to go is during the cool season, which lasts from November to February.


A: Did you go to some other places beside Bangkok?


B: Sure. I went to Pattaya. It's a famous resort 8, only two hours' drive from Bangkok. There's plenty to enjoy: fine sand, blue sky, clear water, colorful night life...


A: Well, it sure sounds like you had a great time.


B: Oh, I sure did. And I plan to go back there next year. I'd like to visit Phuket, the biggest island of Thailand. It's world-famous as a seaside resort.
