Last year, we went on holiday to America. We flew to Florida and visited Disneyworld, before going to Miami. While we were staying in Miami, we were meeting a great couple. They were spending a year travelling around the USA. We were talking all night and they told us about their favourite American cities. We decided to go to New Orleans with them. So, we hired a car and drove along the coast and through the national forests. It was a long journey, so we were stopping at different places on the way. When we were having a break in Tallahassee, we saw someone we knew. It was being our neighbour from our village in England! What a coincidence!
