W: OK, I think we have two choices of where we can spend our vacation. The first place is a little house. It's located on a fruit farm. But it says there's no air conditioner.
M: That's OK. It's on the rainy side of the island. It's cooler there. We can use a fan.
W: You're probably right. It says it looks pretty basic. No washing machine or dryer, not even a TV!
M: Oh, no! What are we going to do without a TV! That's terrible!
W: Very funny. I'm just letting you know about the place.
M: I know. What's our second choice?
W: It's on the opposite side of the island. Very nice place with a big swimming pool. It's only three blocks from the ocean. Well, the pool area also has barbecue grill, beautiful gardens...
M: Well, it does have everything. Washing machine, dryer, TV, VCR, frying pan... All we need is a toothbrush. Let's go with the second choice. I can't wait to go!
W: OK. I'll call them right now and reserve it.
