Situation 12: Going to San Francisco
(The next day, Mr. Park and Su-mi take an airplane to San Francisco.)
Su-mi (Sue): Dad, I'm really tired. I don't want to fly again.
Mr. Park (Dad): Sue, don't worry. This flight is only one hour, not ten.
Su-mi (Sue): Oh, that's different. One hour is easy.
(One hour later, they arrive in San Francisco. They leave the airport and catch a taxi.)
A man (Taxi driver): Where to?
Mr. Park (Dad): Excuse me?
A man (Taxi driver): Where do you want to go?
Mr. Park (Dad): Oh, we are going to the Marriott Hotel.
A man (Taxi driver): Okay, the Marriott Hotel. Are you here for business?
Mr. Park (Dad): No, my daughter and I are here for sightseeing.
A man (Taxi driver): Well, San Francisco is a wonderful city. What are you going to see?
Mr. Park (Dad): I don't know. Are you from San Francisco?
A man (Taxi driver): Yes. I was born and raised here.
Mr. Park (Dad): Well, what do you think we should see?
A man (Taxi driver): How long will you be here?
Mr. Park (Dad): We will only be here for one day.
A man (Taxi driver): Oh, that's not much time. If you only have one day, you should see the Golden Gate Bridge and Golden Gate Park.
Su-mi (Sue): Yeah, I learned about the Golden Gate Bridge in school. I really want to see it.
Mr. Park (Dad): Okay, where else should we visit?
A man (Taxi driver): You should also visit Chinatown. It is very old and had many good places to eat.
Su-mi (Sue): I love Chinese food. My favorite is Tangsuyuk.
A man (Taxi driver): What is that? I've never heard of it before?
Mr. Park (Dad): Oh, that is the Korean name for sweet and sour pork.
A man (Taxi driver): Sweet and sour pork? That's my favorite, too.
Mr. Park (Dad): Okay, why don't we go to Chinatown first? We can eat lunch there, and then go to see the Golden Gate Bridge.
Mr. Park (Dad): I know a very good restaurant. Do you want me to take you there?
Mr. Park (Dad): Yes, please.
