Enjoying Nature


Charles: This is what I call the great outdoors. Look at that stunning 1 view! 


Rachel: This is truly jaw-dropping. We’re in the middle of one of the most pristine 2 areas of the world where wildlife lives in its natural habitat. 


Charles: It’s almost like living in the middle of the wilderness 3, isn’t it? I bet those ponds and forests have amazing biodiversity. 


Rachel: It is beautiful, and it’s great to be away from all of the pollution of the city. I’ve never seen foliage 4 like this. This is truly a majestic 5 landscape. 


Charles: You really can’t appreciate the outdoors until you come to a place like this. 


Rachel: You’re right. I feel like I’m at one with nature here. 


Charles: Should we leave the hotel and go for a walk? 


Rachel: A walk? Why? We have the best view of nature right here. We don’t want to spoil the effect by getting too close.
