Raw Text (Chinese / Pinyin / English)
Chinese

该加油了,去机场的路上有加油站吗? 我记得过了长江大桥往右一拐就有一个,大概有四五公里远。 好,那我就放心了,别开着开着没油了。你去北京的航班是几点的?时间来得及吗? 航班本来是十点的,后来机场网站上通知推迟了一个小时,所以九点半以前到就应该没问题。 刚才我还有点儿担心来不及呢。一会儿加完油,往西走五百米就能上高速公路。走高速公路大约半个小时就到了。 一会儿我自己进去换登机牌,你就不用送我了,等我到了首都机场再给你发短信。

Pinyin

English

It's time to refuel. Is there a gas station on the way to the airport? I remember after crossing the Yangtze River Bridge, make a right turn and there is one, about four or five kilometers away. Okay, then I'm relieved. Don't run out of gas while you're driving. What time is your flight to Beijing? Is there enough time? The flight was originally at 10:00; later the airport website announced a one-hour delay, so arriving before 9:30 should be no problem. Just now I was still a little worried we wouldn't make it. After we finish refueling in a bit, go west for five hundred meters and we can get on the expressway. Taking the expressway, we'll get there in about half an hour. In a bit I'll go in by myself to get my boarding pass; you don't need to see me off. I'll text you when I get to Capital Airport.
