Visit To San Francisco Part 1 Mini-Story Lesson

Hello there. Welcome to the mini-story lesson for the conversation “Visit To San Francisco Part 1.” Okay, I’m going to start the story now.

Madonna got into a big fight with her husband. So she decided to go to Nepal for the day. She bought a plane ticket and she went to the airport to catch her flight.

When she got to Nepal, her friend Binaya picked her up. That day they crammed in a lot. They went on a short hike and then they ate lunch. Nepal had amazing food and beautiful mountains. It was the best of both worlds.

Then, after lunch, they visited a temple. There were a lot of monkeys at the temple and one of them jumped on Madonna’s back. The monkey kissed her and then ran away. It made for a great picture.
