Tạm dịch
Kỳ nghỉ 'thư giãn' của chúng tôi
Rắc rối bắt đầu ở sân bay. Chúng tôi đăng ký, sau đó tôi đi qua cửa an ninh, nơi họ lục soát túi xách của bố tôi và tìm thấy một con dao bỏ túi mà ông ấy đã bỏ quên. Anh giải thích rằng đó chỉ là nhầm lẫn nhưng người bảo vệ rất nghi ngờ. Ông ấy hỏi bố rất nhiều câu hỏi và lục soát hành lý của chúng tôi một lần nữa và chúng tôi gần như bị lỡ chuyến bay. Mẹ không vui.
Khi đến Vienna, chúng tôi tới nơi để lấy hành lý tại quầy nhận lại hành lý. Chúng tôi đợi mãi nhưng túi của chúng tôi vẫn chưa đến. Cuối cùng anh chàng ở văn phòng phát hiện ra rằng, mặc dù chúng tôi ở Áo nhưng hành lý của chúng tôi lại ở Úc! Mẹ thật sự không vui chút nào.
Cuối cùng người chúng tôi đã đến khách sạn, nhưng chúng tôi đến muộn đến nỗi họ đã hủy đặt phòng của chúng tôi và các phòng đã được đặt kín cho đến ngày mai. Tối nay chúng tôi có người ở lại trong một đoàn lữ hành ở khu cắm trại cạnh khách sạn. Mẹ vô cùng buồn.
