In 6 weeks, Paul is going on a trip.
He is going to Japan and China.
There are a couple of reasons for the trip.
One reason is for business.
He’s thinking about starting restaurants in both countries.
The other reason is for pleasure.
He enjoys traveling and he’d like to visit some friends.
Yesterday he went online and made airline reservations.
There were plenty of seats on the plane so it was easy.
He also got a good discount.
Unfortunately, he needs a new passport.
His old passport is expiring next week.
This is something he didn’t expect.
Getting a new passport will take at least a week.
He needs to apply for one right away.
Paul also needs a visa to enter China.
The last time he went to china was 3 years ago.
Getting a visa may also take a week or even two.
So he doesn’t have much time.
He needs to hurry.
He can’t get the visa until he gets his new passport.
He'll have to go to the Chinese Consulate in Toronto.
Hopefully there won’t be any delays.
Paul have several friends in each country. One of his best friend lives near the Mount Fuji. His friend lives near a beautiful lake about 3 hours from Tokyo. His friend is a great cook and owns a little restaurant. The restaurant is located on the hill above the lake. It has wonderful view and the food is wonderful. He is looking forward to eating there. Then he will spend the night at his friend’s house. One way to get to his friend’s house is to go by train. If he takes the train, his friend will meet him at the train station. There is a train station about half an hour from his friend’s house. On the other hand, he may decide to go by car. He can rent a car for few days to see more of the country. He can use a GPS to help him with directions. He doesn’t speak Japanese so the directions need to speak in English.
