then ask students to write an email to a foreign friend and say how to get from the station or airport to their home.
sample email:
dear paul,
when you arrive at the station, take the number 6 bus. the bus stop is in front of the station. get off the bus at the great square. then it is a five-minute walk. walk across the square to west street (there is a bank on the corner). go along west street and then turn right into flower street. there’s number 44 on the corner.
see you at eight o’clock.
