In this lesson you will learn phrases that you can use to ask your friends about their holidays.

So, how was your vacation?

Oh! This was the best vacation I’ve ever had in my life!

Wow! Where did you go?

We went to the Bahamas. It’s such an amazing place.

Really? Did you go with your parents?

Of course not! I went with my cousins. We had a blast!

I can imagine that. Did you take any pictures?

Yes. I’ll be uploading them to Facebook today. You can check them out.

That’d be great!

Why is all this work still pending?

What do you mean?

You promised to complete all the assignments during the holidays! What did you do in the holidays, if not this?

Well, I didn’t have enough time to work on the assignments. My brother had an accident and I had to be with him at the hospital.

Alright, but, you’d better complete them by the weekend. If you miss the deadline you won’t get good grades.

How were your holidays?

Totally amazing! I needed that break.

Where did you go?

We took a boat trip to Koh Samui.

Koh Samui is a really peaceful place. It must’ve been quite relaxing.

Oh, yeah! After all the hectic schedules and tough life, it’s good to have a peaceful vacation. All I got was blue sea and clear sky!

I need a break myself. Going to apply for a 7-day leave today. Let’s see if the boss approves it.

I hope he does. You’ve worked very hard on your last project.

Hey Jerry! Glad to see you’re back. How were the hols?

Don’t ask, Brandy! I’ve had better holidays.

Why? What happened?

It was a series of disasters. Seriously.

Really, Jerry?

Yep. My flight got delayed 7 hours. Then the taxi to the hotel broke down.

Goodness!

The hotel was terrible. The food was awful.

I’m sorry to hear that, Jerry. It all sounds so bad!

But that’s not all, Brandy. I got sick from the bad food and couldn’t go out of the hotel room for 3 days.

Gosh, Jerry! You’ve had the most awful vacation ever!

I know, Brandy. It was hell.
