M: Hi, Jane. Welcome back. How was the West Coast?

W: Terrific. I had a wonderful time. It was really nice getting away from the city for a while.

M: What did you think of Los Angeles?

W: It was simply great. I liked it better than I thought I would. It’s very clean and spacious, and it’s got a lot of trees. The problem is transportation. The bus service is terrible, and of course, they don’t have any subway, so it’s a little difficult to get around. We had to rent a car.

M: And what about the weather?

W: Well, it was nice and warm in Los Angeles and cool but comfortable in San Francisco.

M: Cool in San Francisco? That’s surprising.

W: Yeah, it surprised me a bit, too. We didn’t take any sweaters or anything, and they say it’s always like that in August. Anyway, I loved it. It’s probably the most beautiful city in the US—all those hills, the bay, and those charming old Victorian houses.

M: So, you like it better than Los Angeles?

W: Oh, yes. There’s much more to see and do. And because it’s smaller than Los Angeles, it’s a bit easier to get around. There are lots of buses and streetcars, and of course, the cable cars, too.
