B: Áno. Do Viedne a potom do Budapešti.
D: Ideš tam na dovolenku?
B: Nie, idem tam pracovne. A čo ty?
D: Ja idem na dovolenku. Najprv do Viedne na tri dni, potom do Bratislavy na osem dní.
B: Super! Minulý rok som aj ja bol v Bratislave, ale len dva dni. Chcem sa tam vrátiť.
D: Prečo? Páči sa ti Bratislava?
B: Bratislava je veľmi zaujímavé mesto. Chcem ju viac spoznať.
D: Môžeš mi povedať viac o Bratislave? Neviem o nej nič.
B: Dobre, ale teraz idem do baru. Máme ešte 43 minút do nástupu na palubu lietadla. Idešso mnou?
D: Prečo nie?! Poďme!
