Saturday morning. Thomas has invited you to the lake tomorrow, by train. Where is the station? Outside number 7 you ask the way: Karen, Sofie, and Mads, just home from a night of jazz. Three neighbours, three answers.

Karen
Ja, det ved jeg. Jeg hører alt.
Yes, I know. I do not miss a thing.
Karen
Stationen ligger langt væk. Først til venstre, så ligeud og så til højre ad den anden gade.
The station is far away. First left, then straight on, then right at the second street.
Sofie comes out of the café with a tray.
Sofie
Langt væk? Nej. Til højre og så til venstre ved hjørnet. Meget tæt på!
Far away? No. Right, then left at the corner. Very close!
For Karen ligger stationen langt væk …
For Karen, the station is far away…
For Karen ligger stationen langt væk …
For Karen, the station is far away…
Sofie
Alt ligger langt væk for Karen.
Everything is far away for Karen.
Karen
Jeg kan høre jer!
I can hear you!
Mads comes home with his trumpet case, after a night of jazz.
Mads
Godnat. Åh nej, godmorgen!
Good night. Oh no, good morning!
Mads, hvor er stationen?
Mads, where is the station?
Mads, hvor er stationen?
Mads, where is the station?
Mads
Ligeud. Den ligger ved åen. Fem minutter til fods.
Straight on. It is by the river. Five minutes on foot.
Tre naboer, tre forskellige veje!
Three neighbours, three different routes!

Jeg mener togstationen. Den ligger langt væk.
I mean the train station. That is far away.
Sofie
Jeg mener busstationen. Den ligger meget tæt på.
I mean the bus station. It is very close.
Mads
Jeg mener Den Gamle Station. Jeg spiller der i weekenden.
I mean the Old Station. I play there at the weekend.
Så til togstationen. Først til venstre?
So, to the train station. Left first?
Så til togstationen. Først til venstre?
So, to the train station. Left first?
Karen
Præcis. Kom ikke for sent i morgen!
Exactly. Do not be late tomorrow!

All three are right. The town has a train station, a bus station, and the Old Station, which is now a jazz bar. Mads plays there at weekends. You take Karen's way, and around the corner stands the train station, small and old, with a big clock.
