這一週的旅遊英文，我們用英文網站 Trip Advisor 一起體會如何上網查機票、查旅館。
然後我們用網站上現有的英文範本，一起想像如何規劃一個到日本的三天行程、如何打包及規劃預算。在這個過程中，孩子們要練習將日幣換算成台幣、並且想像自己要打包的行李有哪些。聽到這些日文名稱時，很多孩子都笑翻了！
（下週欣慈出國開會，因此請欣慧代課，到時會請欣慧播放一部和旅遊有關的電影給孩子們看。）

Sample Trip Schedule
This
is a loose three-day schedule that leaves room for spontaneity and
exploration. All landmarks on the schedule are famous and situated in
neighborhoods that are full of possibilities.
Day 1
Morning
Tsukiji
Fish Market: After resting up after a long flight, the first day starts
with an exploration of the famous Tsukiji Fish Market.
Noon
Sushi
Zanmai: Situated inside the Tsukiji Fish Market, this is a convenient
and must-try restaurant for lunch. It’s affordable as well, and
therefore easy on the wallet.
Afternoon
Meiji Shrine: A moment of peace after the bustle of the fish market.
Shibuya
109: The mall across from the famous and oft-photographed Shibuya
Crossing. Buy some prepared food to take to the park the next day.
Day 2
Morning
Yoyogi
Park: A busy and relaxing park full of buskers and musicians. The
perfect place for a leisurely breakfast or brunch with the prepared food
from Shibuya 109.
Afternoon
Harajuku: In the same neighborhood as Yoyogi Park, Harajuku is known for its vibrant personality and trendsetting fashion.
Day 3
Morning
Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden: The start to a relaxing day before saying goodbye to Tokyo.
Afternoon
Roppongi
Hills shopping complex: Situated in the famous Roppongi neighborhood,
this is the perfect place to pick up some trinkets or mementos for
people back home.
