At the small-town bus station in bright daylight, Paulina lowers a suitcase into the open luggage compartment as the large bus waits. Jason stands near the doorway, smiling broadly and waving goodbye toward distant storefronts.
Paulina and Jason packed their bags. "Let's go to New York City!" said Paulina excitedly. They got on the big bus together. Jason smiled and waved goodbye to their small town. The city adventure was beginning!
On a bustling New York City street under midday sun, Jason stands curbside pointing skyward at towering glass skyscrapers while Paulina laughs beside him. Yellow taxis blur past, their bright colors reflecting on nearby shop windows.
"Wow, look how tall!" said Jason pointing up. The buildings touched the sky like giants. Paulina and Jason walked through the busy streets. They saw yellow taxis zooming everywhere. "This is so exciting!" laughed Paulina.
In a sun-dappled city park, Paulina and Jason dash across soft green grass, mid-stride with delighted faces. Tall trees frame chirping birds perched on branches, and a distant skyline peeks beyond the foliage.
Paulina and Jason found a beautiful green park. "Let's play here!" said Jason happily. They ran on the soft grass together. Birds sang pretty songs in the trees. The park was their favorite place in the whole city.
Inside the spacious bus during the return journey, Paulina leans forward in her seat, smiling as she speaks to Jason seated beside her. Rows of patterned seats and their stowed backpacks frame the cozy scene.
"That was the best trip ever!" said Paulina. Jason agreed with a big smile on his face. They rode the bus back home together. Paulina and Jason talked about all their fun adventures. They couldn't wait to visit again someday!
