At the Travel Agency
Jan is planning a trip to New York for a holiday. He needs to contact the travel agency to make reservations for the trip.

Here are the plans Jan has in mind. Read through them, and then see if you can help him answer the questions the travel agent asks about the reservations.


Jan has chosen New York for his holiday because there is an art festival he wants to attend in Central Park. The festival begins on August 10th at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Jan really wants to be there for the opening ceremonies, but he can't leave earlier than the 10th because he has to be home on the 9th for his daughter's birthday.

Jan's wife, Christina, will be travelling with him. Christina is a very particular person. She is not a morning person, and she is very allergic to cigarrette smoke. She also likes her privacy in the bathroom. Jan has to think about these things when he makes the reservations.

Neither Jan nor Christina like to drive in city traffic, but they also dislike using public transportation. The two of them really enjoy trying new food and going to the theatre. They are hoping to find entertainment with a minimum of transportation difficulty.

There is a holiday budget they must observe -- the money they've saved for the trip is limited. They don't want to carry their cash with them, so they will be using their credit card for all of their travel arrangements.

The art festival will be over on the fifteenth of August, but Jan thinks it would be nice to spend a few extra days exploring the city.


How would Jan answer the following questions?
