Read the dialogue and draw the route from the students' hostel to the Royal
Botanic Garden.
Nick: Excuse me.
Policeman: Yes? Can 1 help you?
Nick: Is this the Royal Botanic Garden?
Policeman: No, I'm afraid it's not. This is Princess Street Gardens. On the left is
Edinburgh Castle.
Nick: Hm ... I think we have lost our way. We want to go to the Royal Botanic Garden.
We started from our hostel in High Street and walked along Cockbum Street, then
straight on over Waverley Bridge for about 500 metres and then turned left.
Policeman: Oh, I see. Don't turn left at the end of Waverley Bridge. Carry on straight
along St Andrew's until you reach the bus station.
Ann: But we don't want to go to the bus station. We want to see the Royal Botanic
Garden.
Policeman: Well, it's a long way from here. If you want to get there quickly, you can
take a bus from the bus station.
Ann: We would like to walk. How long does it take?
Policeman: Go straight along Hannover Street and then, when you come to the park,
carry on along Dundas Street. You will be there in about an hour. There is the National
Portrait Gallery at the end of the park. If you wish to see it, you will need more time.
Ann: That's a good idea but we don't have much time.
Nick: Thank you very much!
Policeman: You are welcome.
