Dialogue

Lisa san seems to have lost her way.  She asked a woman the way.
[02:02]
Lisa:  Um… is the station in this direction?
Woman :  No, not this way, but that way.
L:    Is it within walking distance?
W:  Well, let’s see, it will take 20 minutes. Go straight here and turn right at that traffic light. From there, follow the road about 15 minutes, and you will see the station, I guess.
L:    Michinari?
W:  Well, (it means) to follow the road. There will be a little slope, though. 
L:    I  should be fine. It will be a good exercise!
