They went sightseeing, visited the picture gallery and did shopping. In the evening they came back to the hotel from the cinema. The servant in the hotel told them: "I'm sorry, gentlemen, the lift doesn't work. You can sleep here, in the hall or go to your room". "No, no", said the men, "We will go up to our room".
