#Person1#: What a great day! Hey, Tom, do you want to go to the beach this weekend?
#Person2#: Yeah, that is a great idea. Maybe Sara would like to come along with us.
#Person1#: I doubt it.
#Person2#: Why? You are kidding! You know, she loves watching the sea.
#Person1#: But yesterday afternoon she told me that she would go home this Saturday.
#Person2#: What happened?
#Person1#: She said that her mother was ill and stayed in the hospital, and therefore she wanted to go home to see her.
#Person2#: I am sorry to hear that. Well, What do you think? Should we take some food?
#Person1#: That sounds great. Maybe we could have a picnic on the beach. Then let's take some sandwiches, chips, and uh... some salad as well.
#Person2#: We should also take some drinks like Coke and beer.
#Person1#: Good. In addition, we had better pack beach towels and sun cream.
#Person2#: OK. Please don't forget to give me a call and let's go down together.
#Person1# invites #Person2# to the beach at the weekend as Sara, whose mom is ill, cannot go. They list some food, drink, and other belongings to take.
