Welcome to my Travel Diary!

Here you can read all about my adventures around the world. I've also included maps of some of the places I've visited (including where I live, Guinea Pig City). I hope you have fun learning about my travels.

Mrs. Traveller Goes to Canada

The time that I went to Canada was a very exciting one. I even went up the CN Tower (the world’s tallest freestanding tower)! Here is my account of my travels in Canada.

First, I got off my plane. I was at the Pearson Airport in Toronto. It is a really busy place! I almost lost my luggage (another guinea pig thought it was hers) and my purse (it almost fell into the toilet). Now I know to be more careful in busy airports.

After I left the airport, I took a tour bus around Toronto. First, the bus went past the CN Tower. It’s so tall; I got dizzy just looking at it!

Next, the bus went past the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM). It used to be only a regular shaped museum, but a large extension shaped like a crystal was added in 2007. I went there later in my visit to Toronto.

The bus also went past the Hockey Hall of Fame. There you can see hockey memorabilia. I was not able to go there, though. I was too busy sight-seeing at other places.

I left Canada a week after I arrived there. Here are some of the things that I learned while there:

1.    Be careful in busy airports.

2.    The CN Tower is so tall; you can’t see all of it when you look up at it.

3.    I love poutine (especially with lettuce sauce).

I hope you enjoyed reading about my travels to Canada.

My Travels to Peru

I stepped off the plane to face a horrible sight: guinea pigs scattering in every direction, screaming. I looked up to see a large sign with these terrible words in big black letters: “BEWARE OF PEOPLE WITH NETS”. I ran as fast as I could to the safest place I could think of: the snack bar. I ordered their soup of the day. It was carrot with creamed lettuce. That’s my favourite soup.

After I was done eating, I walked to the information desk. “Where is the- ”  I started to say, but the guinea pig at the desk cut me off by saying, “Run for your life! The people are coming to turn us into guinea pig soufflé!” I ran. I bought tickets for the next plane to Guinea Pig City and boarded quickly. When the plane finally landed in Guinea Pig City, I was relieved.

I learned many things from that trip. The most important were:

1.    Some people in Peru eat guinea pigs.

2.    Peru is NOT a good vacationing spot for a guinea pig.

3.    Their carrot with creamed lettuce soup tastes too creamy.

4.    It is definitely a waste of money to go there if you are a guinea pig.

5.    I will later go back to Peru on a rescue mission to save guinea pigs.

6.    I will go to England next time.

Stay tuned for my visit to England...
