It was a long iournev from Taipei.

While we were on the road, holiday bumper-to-bumper traffic slowed us down to a snails pace and a car accident the previous day made the congestion worse.
一路上，假日大排長龍的車流使我們慢得如蝸牛一般，而前一天的一場車禍使塞車更為嚴重。
Consequently, we got stuck for more than six hours on the highway.

We were worried about Grandma the whole time.

As soon as we arrived at the Taian Rest Area, we anxiously phoned home.
一到泰安休息區，我們滿懷焦慮地打電話回家。
However, Grandma had died of heart failure just half an hour before we called.
然而，在我們打電話前半小時，祖母已因心臟衰竭而去世。
