Welcome back! I didn't see you in physics class last Thursday.
I wasn't here that day. I went on a trip to New York. I just came back last night.
New York! What a city! I am sure you had lots of fun there.
No, not really. I was too busy doing business. It's very hot there, too.
Well, did you enjoy the trip?
Yeah, it was OK. I went to see the Statue of Liberty and that made the trip interesting.
I have never been to New York. I would like to go there someday.
Try to go during the spring or autumn when the weather is very nice.
