How much was a Eurailpass Youth Ticket? [br] [originaltext]Kerry　　　Hi Louise-h

Kerry　　　Hi Louise-how was your summer vacation?
Louise　　 Oh fantastic! I only got back from Europe yesterday.
Kerry　　　Wow! That sounds exciting.
Louise　　 Yes, it was. How was your holiday?
Kerry　　　Pretty quiet compared with yours. I just stayed around Cambridge - but we’re
　　　　　 planning to go to Europe at the end of next term.
Louise　　 Oh you’ll have a great time! I really recommend it. How are you going to get
　　　　　 around?
Kerry　　　Well, we’ve thought about renting a car. Flying is far too expensive. What did you
　　　　　 do?
Louise　　 We bought Eurail tickets and travelled around Europe by train.
Kerry    Was it expensive?
Louise　　 No, not really. It cost us ￡ 203 for a Eurailpass Youth Ticket.
Kerry    I’ve heard of Eurail-what did that include?
Louise　　 Well, you get unlimited train travel in and between seventeen European countries. It
　　　　　 lasted for a month.
Kerry　　　Gee for ￡ 203-that sounds reasonable. Did you visit all of the seventeen places?
Louise　　 Yes, all except for Ireland. We couldn’t really understand why Ireland was included
　　　　　 on the pass but England wasn’t.
Kerry　　　Yes, that seems a bit strange. Did it include the trip from London to Paris in the
　　　　　 Channel Tunnel?
Louise　　 No, unfortunately we had to pay extra for that train but we did get a discounted fare
　　　　　 because we’re students.
Kerry　　　Were there any other restrictions on the tickets?
Louise　　 Well, if you want to pay more or less money you can choose another plan-there
　　　　　 are 15 and 21 day plans or 2 and 3 month plans. The only restriction for the Youth
　　　　　 Ticket is that you have to be under 26.
Kerry　　　That suits my friends and me. None of us are 26 yet. We went to school together.
Louise　　 Oh, you really have to do it. It’s safe and easy and a great way to see the countryside.
　　　　　 The weather was fantastic and so were the people!
Kerry　　　It sounds great.
