The Family Trip
And his vocabulary word…
Today’s random word is railroad
The Santoso is going on a family vacation. Dad can’t afford six airplane tickets, so they’re going on a train — the first time for Bobby, the youngest. Bobby’s favorite movie is The Polar Express. His favorite toy is the Mountain View train set Dad got him for his seventh birthday.
“I’m so excited!” He screamed while getting ready.
“It’s only train!” Rima, his sister, replied with exasperation.
“But how about if we hear the magic bell rings?”
“Hurry up, Bobby!” Dad entered the screaming contest.
“Stop railroading me, Dad!”
“You’ve been studying your vocabulary! Good for you, Bobby!” Dad said.
