#Person2#: Hi.
#Person1#: You look great! Have you been on vacation?
#Person2#: Yeah, I have. I was on the West Coast.
#Person1#: Nice! How was it?
#Person2#: Great. I had a wonderful time. It was really nice to get away from work.
#Person1#: Where did you go?
#Person2#: Los Angeles and San Francisco.
#Person1#: How did you like Los Angeles?
#Person2#: Well, it is cleaner than I thought it would be, and there are a lot of trees, so I like it better than I thought I would. But it's huge! It's really hard to get around. The bus service is terrible, and you know, I don't like taking the underground. We had to rent a car.
#Person1#: And was the weather good?
#Person2#: Oh, yes, it was nice and warm in Los Angeles.
#Person1#: What about San Francisco?
#Person2#: The weather? It was cooler than LA, but it wasn't uncomfortable.

#Person1#: So, you like it better than Los Angeles?

#Person1#: I'm afraid I don't agree with you there. Reducing air pollution is really important. People are so used to driving that they don't think about ways to do things. If we stop them from driving on certain days, maybe they could think of new ways to get around.
