person A: When I worked as a hotel rep. in Spain a few years ago I was greeting guests one morning. Suddenly I saw someone I knew - it was my cousin who decided to come and visit me. It was so unexpected!
person B: Oh that must have been so exciting and surprising! 
person A: It really was. I had no idea he was coming to visit. I couldn't believe my eyes!
person B: Did you all do some fun things while he was there?
person A: We certainly did. Where I was working was a seaside resort and there are loads of clubs_comma_ restaurants etc. so we'd go to the beach and then party at night. Brilliant fun!
