Here are my options: 1. A. climate; 2. D. temperature; 3. A. famous ; 4. D. visit; 5. C. sightseeing; 6. B. trip; 7. flights.
I am quite sure about options from 1 to 5. However, I am not quite certain about my options for 6 & 7 . I opt "flights" for option 7 because of the words "frequently", we can't say "journeys or trips" here. Could you get me out?:?:
