Short Talk 70 (Listen and Read)

Hi, this is Sarah.

As you know, I am supposed to be flying home tomorrow,

but I just got an email that says my flight from Cancun to Miami has been cancelled because of a tropical storm.

The airline said the soonest I can leave here wouldn't be until tomorrow afternoon.

The problem is, if I leave that late, by the time I get to Miami and take the bus to Fort Lauderdale, it will be after midnight.

Rather than have such a long day, I would rather just stay an additional night in Cancun,

and then I can get a morning flight the day after tomorrow.

That way, I will arrive in Fort Lauderdale the same evening.

Cancun has been a blast, so I'm happy to have an extra day.

We should plan a trip together. I'll talk to you soon!
