Annie said, "Come early. I show you through house." I thought.
I was ready early, thank goodness and just playing around on the computer, when she unexpectedly arrived here at the van.
Her conversation with me should have been..... I come early. I show you to house. There's a world of difference between through and to.
Her kind idea had been to come here, pick me up, take me to her house for a massage, then bring me back home, so that I would know where to go in future.
She honoured me!!! Turn me around once and I'm lost.
I went with Annie, with Steve loudly repeating, "I will come to Annie's and Tom's house to get you at 4pm" as I was getting in the car.
An hour and one welcome massage later, I walked out the back of their house and had Annie greet me at the front, "I take you back to caravan."
I sat on their patio and waited for Steve, thinking that it wouldn't hurt me to learn to speak a bit of basic Chinese.
