Jack and Jill are going on holiday tomorrow. So they must prepare their things.
They are going skiing, so they will need warm clothes.
They will catch the train tomorrow morning. The train leaves at quarter past seven. So they will have to get up quite early to be on time.
Jill is thinking about taking a good book to read because her doctor told her she mustn't ski too much. She should take it easy. Jack loves skiing, he will ski all day, the slopes open at nine o'clock so he will get up at eight to be there on time. He hopes the weather will be good, because if the weather is bad the slopes will be closed and he won't be able to ski.
In the evening, they could eat in a restaurant or maybe they could take some food to their appartment.
If they have enough energy, they will be able to go to dance in the night club.
They both think their holiday will be a lot of fun and they will enjoy themselves a lot.
