  Traveler: Hello!
  Local: Hello.
  Traveler: Where are you from?
  Local: I'm from Cao Bang.
  Traveler: Great. I'm going there tomorrow. Could you suggest an interesting place to visit there?
  Local: Yes. The biggest tourist attraction in Cao Bang is Ban Gioc Waterfall. It's very beautiful.
  Traveler: How do I get there?
  Local: Well, you can take the bus from Cao Bang City or you can go there on your own on a motorbike. The way there is lovely, with a lot of farms and villages, rivers and mountains.
  Traveler: I think I'll take the motorbike then. How much does it cost to visit the waterfall?
  Local: There is a fee, but I don't remember how much. It isn't expensive.
  Traveler: Thanks. I think I'll go there tomorrow. Do you know where I can find something good to eat that isn't expensive?
  Local: Hmm. Let me think. There are a lot of places like that. You can get a bowl of chicken rice noodle next to the market for about 25,000 dong.
  Traveler: Sounds good. I think I'll do that. Thanks.
  Local: My pleasure. Have fun in Cao Bang. Bye.
  Traveler: Goodbye.
