My last overseas business trip was a nightmare from start to finish. First of all there was a delay on the way to the airport as there was an accident on the __fr_e_e_w_a_y___. When I got there I found the lower level of the airport p__a_rk_i_n_g_l_o_t_ was flooded. Next my _c_a_r_r_y_-o_n__lu_g__g_a_g_e_ was too big and heavy so I had to check it in. When we arrived the __s_u_b_w_a_y__ was closed and there were no cabs at all. After a long time trying to read the __s_c_h_e_d_u_le___ and waiting for forty minutes, we finally got a bus _d__o_w_n_t_o_w_n__ and found the hotel, but the __e_le_v_a_t_o_r__ wasn’t working and our rooms were on the fifth floor.
