I was distracted by the maths in this one. The man has two kids but the receptionist charges for three. Or did I misunderstand?
Hi Christian, You’re right – the math doesn’t check out here! Such a dishonest campsite taking advantage of its customers like that…
Sim. Esta correito. Tres adultos e um crianca. O filho mais velho tem treze anos=adulto.
Mac
Apologies I have not been able to use the accent feature today!
Ohh, yes you’re right Mac. They are counting the older son as an adult. That’s why they only ask for the proof of age for the younger one.
Senhora Natacha continua a ser um grande desafio! Quer dizer, sua pronúncia continua… 🙂
