Spanish for your holiday ยท Chapter 5: In the taxi

To the airport, please

To the next lesson

The next sentence: Al aeropuerto, por favor.

The taxi driver you say this to is eating an eel โ€“ Aal in German (al). You see the airport on the other side of town, past an Eros Center (aero). Inside there is a counter (Pult) where tomatoes are sold (puerto).

Because the eel blends into the word, it sounds as if the L belongs to the airport โ€“ but it belongs to al. At the airport there is a big gate (por favor).
