They walked to the middle of the train. They found some seats and sat down. A few minutes later, the train began to move.
Martha and Brian felt a little nervous, but their parents said they would enjoy the ride. Dad said he liked the train ride because he didn't need to drive all the time. Mum added that

We value the time we spend with our family and friends in our everyday lives. We often just drop by our friend’s homes if we have time. We don't usually have to make plans to meet our friends .When we see each other, it's polite for boys to shake hands and for girls to kiss each other on the side of the face. We often just walk around the town center, seeing as many of our friends as we can!
