Last Saturday, Luis and his sister Marta took a train to a town near the sea. They wanted to visit a small market and have lunch outside. Luis bought the tickets on Friday, but he forgot to check the weather.
At the station, Marta looked at the screen. Their train was late, so they waited in a cafe. They shared a sandwich because they were hungry. When the train arrived, they found seats beside a window.
It started to rain during the journey. Marta had an umbrella, but Luis only had a light jacket. They decided to visit the town museum first. After an hour, the rain stopped. They walked to the market and bought bread and cheese for lunch.
On the way home, Luis checked the weather for Sunday. Marta smiled. Next time, he wanted to check it before buying the tickets.
