Talking with foreigner

At the last day of last year.I met a couple of foreigners at the Mcdonald's.When I find there are free seats beside them.I walked close and asked:"hello,Is this seat taken?"The man of the couple looked at me and smile:"no,please."I got a cup of coke then sit down.After a smile"hello!",I asked:"Make I have a word with you?""sure."Both of them smile and said.
"Could you tell me where are you from?"
"We are form.....?
I didn't know which country they have told me.So the woman foreigner showed me with a little book.Oh,It 's Holand!I have never spoken this country in English.Then I asked something about they country.The famous flower--tulip,the famous citys,and the Chinese medicine at there,the near country --Belgium.after that,I asked some questions:
"How long have you been to China?""Just two weeks."
"which city are you going to vist?"Hongkong,We are going to guang zhou by bike then to hongkong."
"By bike?Great!"
"Where's the most beautiful place in China?""Guilin"
They also asked me some question:
"Do you often go to Mcdonald's?""No,It's expensive for me to spend here.How about you?Maybe it's very cheap for you,right?""No,It's expensive for us too."The man answered.I think maybe he was for courtesy.
"Do you have holidays in spring's day?""Yes,Id will have 7 days then.It's the mast important day for Chinese.Like the Chiristmas day for you.So do you have holiday at Chiristmas day?""yes,we also have a week of holidays,From the Chiristmas day to the final of the year.""it's today."
At last,we talked about the weather.they told me at Holandit it is colder than here.It's -5c there now.
