La Vacación de mis Sueños
Plan the perfect trip to a Spanish-speaking country! You will present your vacation with a 12-slide PowerPoint (at least 12 slides…more are okay).
Here’s your checklist:
____ The name of the city and country you are visiting.
____ The name of your hotel, price of each night, and pictures of the hotel.
____ The cost of round-trip airfare to and from your destination.
____ The name of the currency (money) used at your destination, and the exchange rate of the money to the US dollar.
____ At least three activities that you plan to do on your vacation.
____ Cuisine (food) that you will likely find at your destination.
You will probably have at least 9 slides with the above information, but you need a total of 12 slides.
So, here are some suggestions:
· Famous sites and landmarks close to your destination.
· Shopping centers
· Weather conditions at your city. Will it be hot? Cold?
· Type of transportation that you will use once you are there. Are there public buses? Will you have to rent a car or take a taxi?
