Hi! Shall we take the train to the countryside on Saturday? I would really like to see a small village and visit a farm. Nearby there is also a windmill and there are beautiful walking paths in nature.

Hi Noor, great idea! I can make it on Saturday. I prefer the morning, because then we have enough time to walk in nature. Visiting a farm sounds fun to me, especially to see the cows and sheep. Shall we meet at the station at 10:00? Could you send the train times?
