A、Because the weather is fine then. B、Because it is cheap to travel in this month. C、Because there’s a film festival on in May.

P: What about a gym?
J: Oh yes, they have a gymnasium that the guests can use. There’s no tennis court, though I’m afraid, or massage service, which I know you like. Although there is a sauna.
P: That’s OK. I can live without a massage for a few days! Besides, the hotel sounds great. And the price is certainly too good to miss. So when shall we go?
J: The offer doesn’t apply to June, or July for that matter. So I guess it’ll have to be May or August.
P: August is too far away. I feel tired and desperately need a holiday, so May gets my vote. Besides, my work slackens off just before the main holidays.
J: May is fine by me too. Now I guess all we need to do is plan our schedule. You said you like surfing, right? So we could plan a day when we just indulge ourselves in water sports.
P: I don’t mind really. Nothing too strenuous though. How about a spot of fishing while we’re there?
J: Why not? Maybe we’ll be able to catch our lunch!
P: Don’t bet on it. You know what my fishing skills are like! Just a minute. Isn’t there a film festival on in May?
J: Yes, there is. It’s a full three day event I believe.
P: You’re not suggesting we spend a full three days there, are you?
J: Not at all. Maybe half a day will be enough.
P: Let’s make it a day. Besides, you never know who will be there.
J: What, someone like Nicole Kidman, you mean?
P: No. She’s not my type. Now Sandra Bullock is a different matter!
J: Maybe Tom Hanks. OK, you’ve convinced me. A day it is.
P: That’s two days taken care of. Put down a few days on the beach. I can’t come back without a suntan.
J: What do you think, three days or four?
P: Make it four; plus a day’s shopping.
J: A day’s shopping. OK.
P: And the other days?
J: Well, tell you what, why don’t we go to the library and get a guide book. That’ll give us more ideas.
P: OK, let’s go.
