Dear Mrs. L-J (Letter #4)....
Another post by Terran...in these posts Terran writes a journal entry, and then I copy it out, add a few explanations, and add pictures for our blog:
Dear Mrs. L-J,
I saw PIGS! In Zorritos (Peru) the pigs like to walk about 5-6 meters away from the sand. You might think of pink perfect pigs, but they are not that pink, they are more brown.
I met a dog named Sisi. My Mom, my Abuelita (Grandma), and I like to feed her, but she does not like “Quaker (oatmeal)” She only likes beans and eggs, soup, and chicken bones....a true Peruvian.
There is so much I could tell you. I have seen a lot of:
1. Dogs (There are a lot of street dogs in Peru)
2. Cats (Ditto with the cats)
3. Stray Pigs...see picture above.
4. Goats
5. Stray cows, and horses- A pack of horses rode right next to me while I was playing on the beach. My Mom was pretty worried for me when it happened, I froze in place, and everything was ok.
6. Mototaxies- These things are my favorite mode of transportation!
7. Big waves
8. Pelicans
9. Sea Lions
10. Crocodiles
11. Sea Turtles
12. Banana and coconut trees
13. Jelly Fish- My mom did not get a picture ;)
14. Sea Shells
I am now in Loja, Ecuador. In the province of Loja there are rainforests, banana tress, animals. The city of Loja is really cool, it has: buses, taxis, Loja Transportes (transportation from cities to cities), dogs, cats, pigeons, and a lot of churches.
How are you? How is Mr. Waffles? What are you doing in school? I miss you!
Love,
Terran

Street pigs in Zorritos, I saw them all over the town. |

Oh Terran, I think you are having a wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy to hear about your experiences.
Love you!
That's quite the list! I love it!
ReplyDeleteWow, so many animals! I love animals too! I cannot imagine what having a pack of wild horses come at you might feel like! And all those friendly creatures you can pet! That's very cool!
