| Todd: | Tennessee! |
|---|---|
| Tenn: | Yes! |
| Todd: | We're gonna talk about sports. |
| Tenn: | OK. I'm not big on sports, but. |
| Todd: | OK, well, that's OK. So you, you don't like sports. |
| Tenn: | Well, I like sports but I'm just not an avid sports watcher. You know I would usually rather watch a movie or some kind of history program. |
| Todd: | Oh, OK. So you're into history. |
| Tenn: | Oh, yes! |
| Todd: | OK. What kind of history? |
| Tenn: | That's a kind of a difficult question. I would say, ah, interested, primarily I interested in ancient and mideval but I also like studying the history of the countries that I have visited it makes it more interesting when I go sight-seeing. |
| Todd: | OK. What countries have you visited? |
| Tenn: | I've been to 26 countries. |
| Todd: | Really! |
| Tenn: | Yeah! |
| Todd: | Oh, OK. Yeah, you can't name them all. |
| Tenn: | The big ones I would say, I've been over a good bit of Europe, ah, Mexico, Peru, I spent almost a year in Egypt and I went to Isreal, Jordan, and now I'm here in Japan. I've been here in Japan for a year and a half. And while I have been here, I visited Korea for about a week. |
| Todd: | OK. Wow. That's a lot so did you do the Pyramids in Egypt? |
| Tenn: | Oh, yes. Actually, I climbed the pyramids. |
| Todd: | Oh, really. Nice. What's it like on the top? |
| Tenn: | Very, very interesting. You can see, ah, it was during the summer so the visibility was rather low. |
| Todd: | Oh, OK. |
| Tenn: | But, to see, we were on The Great Pyramid, and the second Pyramid, Kefron, was right near by, and it is a very different perspective to see it from, interesting to be eye-level, to be on the same level as the top of that second pyramid. |
| Todd: | OK. Wow! So you were in Peru, right? |
| Tenn: | Yes. |
| Todd: | OK. What's the big thing people see in Peru? |
| Tenn: | Machu Pichu. |
| Todd: | Machu Pichu. OK. What is Machu Pichu? |
| Tenn: | Machu Pichu is the ruins of a city that was built by the Inca People. |
| Todd: | OK. |
| Tenn: | Over three...six hundred years ago, and was lost, no one knew what happened to it. Until it was recently discovered about a hundred years ago. |
| Todd: | OK. Wow. Nice. Alright, thanks a lot David |
| Tenn: | Sure! |
| Todd: | Or Tennessee. |
