Nowadays, in Britain there are more and
more ways of going on holiday.
More and more people go abroad every year.
Some people even go on two or three holidays
a year.
In my opinion there are two types of holiday
makers.
The first kind always flock to seaside resorts
when they go on holiday.
Their one and only aim is to have a good
time by sunbathing and putting their feet up.
They are not a bit interested in local specialities.
At mealtimes, if they can get a plate of
fish and chips, they're more than happy.
They spend their days in the sunshine and
their evenings getting drunk, then sleep soundly.
If this sort of person forgets to pack the
suntan oil, he or she will undoubtedly come home as red
as a lobster.
The other sort of holiday makers go to every
country to increase their knowledge of foreign lands.
They make use of the chance to travel to
improve their world knowledge.
For them, going on holiday is educational.
Consequently, these sorts of travelers will
move from place to place, every few days.
If they visit lots of places in a short
span of time, there is no way that they can get a proper
feel of a place or fully appreciate the local food and wine.
