Talking about the Past

English

Eric phones Tom to tell him about his vacation at a nearby lake.

Eric: Hi Tom. How's it going?

Tom: Good. How was your vacation?

Eric: Great! We went hiking in the forest, and kayaking around the lake. We were very lucky with the weather, it was sunny and warm every day.

Tom: How many people were there?

Eric: There were five of us.

Tom: Where did you stay?

Eric: We rented a cabin at the south end of the lake. It was right on the lake, with a small beach in front. It came with a kayak and wood for the fire pit on the beach. I had such a great time that I want to go again next summer. Maybe you can come with us next time.

Tom: That sounds great!
