Video Script

Hi, I’m Randall, and I’m here with Oddie (Odin), our grandson, and we’re in a place in San Diego. Uh, and one of the things I think you need to keep in mind when you find a place to stay is location.  We’re only a few blocks from the beach. That’s great. Of course, price. What you can afford and what you can pay are another thing.

And the final thing is amenities. Uh, what does the place have? Does it have a washer and dryer? Does it have different bathrooms? Does it have enough sleeping quarters? So keeping these things in mind will help you have a great vacation.
