Without using electronic resources, type out a TRANSLATION (not summary!) of Parts 1 and 2 of El Hotel Elegante. (Feeling daring? Attempt part 3 and/or 4! I'd LOVE to see what you think it is!)

For this formative assessment, I am looking for FIVE specific sentences, so be careful that it 1. "sounds right" in English, and 2. that you aren't just typing out the main ideas and you miss the specifics (example: it isn't "a woman wants to go to Cancun," it says specifically, "There is a woman who wants to go on vacation, she wants to go to Cancun," etc.

Need the document? It's attached to today's date in the eClass calendar as a .PDF (de nada!).
