(7) Two men are talking.
Daisuke: Ben! How's it going? You finally made it out this way to see me!
Ben: What's up, Daisuke? Sorry for missing the earlier train.

Daisuke: That's OK. So, what are you in the mood to do today? Are you hungry? I know a great
place or two if you are.
Ben: Not really. I had a late breakfast on the train. As for what to do, you tell me. It's my
first time to this part of the country, so what should be at the top of my list?
Daisuke: Well, how about Dazaifu? There's a famous shrine there. We'll have to hop on the train
again, but it's not that far. There are some great places to choose from for lunch there,
too.
Ben: That sounds good. Oh, I did want to grab some postcards to send to my folks while I'm
here. Don't let me forget.
Daisuke: I think they sell some at the visitor center near the shrine.
Ben: Great. Do you want to grab a latte first and catch up for a little bit?
Daisuke: Sure. We can check the train schedule while we chat.
