Last
summer
I
took
a
vacation
in
Australia
.
I
didn't
know
much
about
the
country
because
I'd
____________________
been
there
____________________
,
but
I
was
really
excited
about
the
trip
.

.
A
month
before
I
left
,
things
started
to
go
wrong
.
I
lost
my
camera
,
and
I
didn't
find
it

I'd
bought
a
new
one

.
I
finally
found
my
old
camera
in
my
suitcase
!
I'd
put
it
there
____________________
so
I
wouldn't
forget
it
.

The
week
before
the
trip
,
my
boss
gave
me
an
urgent
project
to
complete
.
I
was
exhausted

I'd
finished
it
.

.
The
day
I
left
,
I
felt
stressed
because
I
____________________
hadn't
packed
my
suitcase
.
It
took
a
long
time
to
fit
everything
in
.

.
A
friend
of
mine
drove
me
to
the
airport
.
He'd
driven
there
a
few
times
____________________
,
so
he
thought
he
knew
the
way
.
But
the
got
lost
!

.
By
the
time
I
got
to
the
gate
,
most
of
the
passengers
had
____________________
boarded
the
plane
.

.
Luckily
,
they
hadn't
closed
the
gate
____________________
,
and
I
was
able
to
get
on
the
fight
.
In
the
end
,
everything
worked
out
fine
.
I
guess
I
learned
that
it
almost
always
does
!
