Planning the Perfect Road Trip (Oxford 3000 Vocabulary Series)
Estimated reading time: 1:00s
Emily’s friends were excited to embark on a road trip with her. To navigate the complex route planning, they had to learn how to use a new GPS system. The trip was planned for later that summer, and everyone wanted to laugh and have fun. A large car was rented to ensure a smooth journey, with the oil level topped off, the tires properly inflated, and the light bulbs checked to ensure they were functioning properly. A layer of warm clothing was also packed for the chilly nights ahead. To stay hydrated, they would bring a cooler filled with lemon juice. Before hitting the road, they had to verify that their planned route was legal, avoiding any roads that were closed or restricted. As they were finalizing the plans, they realized that they would have to leave the least popular attractions for another time, due to time constraints and staying within their limit of budget. Finally, everyone was ready to embark on the adventure, feeling excited for the memories they would create together.
