you've come to "Peppy 26". My question this week comes from my online English student George from Hungary..., and George would like to know some phrasal verbs with regard to the verb to run. So , George without further ado ...I give you ...Steve in Brazil"..........................................."Attention all passengers this is your captain speaking . We are just passing over the northern shore of Copacabana. We should be touching down at Tom Jobim International Airport in approximately 15 to 20 minutes for an on time arrival.The current weather is sunny with a few scattered clouds...and the temperature is approximately 29 degrees celcious.We are now coming up on Sugar Loaf and on behalf of myself and the rest of the crew.I would like to thank you for flying with Peppy Airlines.".........................................."Some years ago I was living in Brazil and I had the opportunity to travel to Rio de Janeiro.I had already been to some of the major tourist attractions like Christ Redeemer , Sugar Loaf and last but not least Ipanema Beach ...because I just had to know where that famous song "The girl from Ipanema" was born.........................................."On this particular day , I decided to go for a run down Copacabana Beach.The sun was shining, people were laughing, chatting , sunbathing and the beach was packed.There were people playing volleyball and children were running around , flying kites and having a wonderful time.I stopped my run momentarily because I needed to make a phone call and I noticed that I had just run out of telephone tokens.So I decided to stop at a snackbar to buy some and also to buy some coconut water."........................................."Because being in a tropical paradise like Brazil would not be complete without coconut water.

Shortly after, I saw someone with a white t-shirt and a canadian flag...and I called to this person and said:___Hey! Are you Canadian too? ___You bet! Yourself?___Yeah! Funny running into a fellow Canadian in Rio , eh?___Yeah! That's for sure! Go figure!___Well, enjoy your stay!___You too,bud!........................................"I went on with my run when suddenly I saw in front of me a strange commotion ! Ok!
