B
Ten years ago, my husband and I took a summer holiday in Greece.
On our last night, we didn’t want to stay with other tourists. So we put our best clothes on and set off at 7:30. Then we walked out of the town.
30 minutes later, we arrived at a good-looking restaurant full of local people. So we entered it and found an empty table. The people on the next table seemed to have the most delicious food. There was seafood, meat, salad, and so on. We decided to order the same. A lovely, smiling old lady came over to us but she didn’t speak English. So my husband just pointed to the food on the next table. Happily, she understood and brought us mountains of wonderful food. What a great time!
Finally, when we asked to pay our bill, the old lady just smiled. We were told it was free, because it was the lady’s birthday party and she was very happy we could join them.
How embarrassing(尴尬的), but how lovely! They were so kind to us complete strangers.
