Question

I’m going to take my family to have an overseas trip. My wife, our two children and I will all go along. My elder brother is going with us. He has never been overseas and he is even more excited than the children. My father is so old that he’d like to stay at home and takes care of the house.

We’re going by train to New York, and then take a ship to Europe（欧洲）. When we arrive in Europe, we’re going to several countries for sightseeing. We’ll go to places either by train or by bus. We’re going to fly home.

It took us a long time to decide where to go, but I think we have planned a very interesting trip. We will go to England, France and Italy. My wife is very interested in going to France because she is a teacher of French. And my brother, who speaks very good Italian, is looking forward to the trip to Italy.

We also talked about how we would go to Europe. At first we wanted to fly because it would be faster and would save more time. But my brother likes to take a boat trip and the children enjoy that, too.
