There weren't too many vehicles passing us at the time. About 3:30 pm on a weekday, the road was quite empty. Then, a car was driving along happily in the neighboring lane 4 us. We caught up with it in the hope that the driver would 5 the sign.

An elderly gentleman was driving it and after a brief expression of 6 on his face, he seemed to have seen the sign and slowed down to 7 over. We stopped just right behind him.

（1）（2）Travelling Abroad

Many tourists go and see parks, museums and castle when they visit a new place. There are many things I like about travelling, but waiting in line to buy museum tickets and then having your visit ruined by noisy tour groups is not one of them. The things that make places special are all around the famous buildings, not inside them.

My recent trip to India is a good example of this. By far the most interesting part of it was getting to know people—bicycle-taxi drivers, policemen riding elephants and children trying to earn some money by cleaning shoes. Meeting various people was all so amazing that I didn't need to do any "proper" sightseeing.

I also have fantastic memories of Florence. It was a boiling hot day and people lined up for at least a kilometer long outside the museum. Instead of joining it, I sat in a shady square, ate a delicious pizza and listened to a man singing opera songs to only a few listeners. If I had waited in line, I would have missed this experience.

One of the best things about travelling is creating memories to bring back. When I got back home from a holiday in Malaysia, I made some of the dishes I'd tasted in the food market.Maybe my results weren't as good as the real thing, but they reminded me of the places and the people I'd met—far better than anything from a gift shop.
