่Jane , what are doing there ? is everything okay? maria? the baby don't tell me . . .
no, mom maria's just fine. she's at the gallery now. no baby yet! ted's at work. i'm staying here for the day because i had an accident last night.
you had a what i'm sorry , you'll have to speak louder. i can't hear you very well.
i had an accident last night.
oh,Jane! are you okay?
my cat is a wreck, but i'm okay. my neck hurt a little. the doctor said i should rest for a few days.
test! what kind of test?
not test--rest. i should rest!
yes, that's a good idea. how did it happen?
a truck came around a corner too fast, so i had to go off the road. i hit a tree.
how scary!
then a very nice young couple stopped and took me to the hospital. but don't worry about me. i'll be okay. how are you and dad? are you calling from London?
no,we're in Salisbury now. we came down here by train for the this morning we took a bus out to Stonehenge. it's quit amazing. the stones are enormous, all in the circle. but there were too many people! everyone talking and taking pictures.
this afternoon we looked at church here. it's very old and beautiful, really special. now we're waiting for the train back to London.
how do you like London
it's wonderful! we're having such a good time but you know,it's a bit expensive here. everything costs much more than at home. we're also getting tired of the city. i think we'll leave tomorrow.
are you going to rent a car?
yes. that's the plan. we want to drive north to Scotland.
who's going to drive out of London, you or dad?
i'don't know that's going to be hard these English people are crazy! why do they have to drive on the left!
you'll get used to it.
what did you say? oh dear, now there's noise again on the line. this is a bad connection! listen, we'll call again in a few days. thank goodness you didn't get hurt! take care of yourself. give my love to ted and maria and say hello to Gilberto for me.
okay, mom. bye.
bye
