There once were two girls
who liked to explore
They were happy at home
But they still wanted more.
One girl called Yasmin
Had curly red hair
The other named Carolyn
Took her pink hat everywhere.
These girls were adventurers
No trip was too far.
They just liked to travel
In boat, bus or car.
Train rides were fun
Plane trips were a breeze.
Wherever they travelled
They fit in with ease.
They`d say:
“Just give us our backpacks
And we`re off and away.
We just have to decide
Where to go to today.”
“I fancy Rome
I`d like some gelati.”
“That sounds like fun
That sounds like a party.”
After that they couldn`t stop
They journeyed far and wide
Their next destination was India
they went for an elephant ride.
Next they decided on China
They wanted to see the Great Wall
Carolyn tried to run along it
But Yas said:” Careful, don`t fall!”
They saw street performers in Barcelona
And then a fireworks display
They ate tapas and Spanish donuts
it was like a festival every day.
In Japan they took the bullet train
And travelled north Hokkaido
They strapped into their boards and off they went
free riding in powder snow.
Next they went to Australia
To see the beach and their friend Kate
As the sun set over the sea
They cried out “Bewdy Mate!”
In Bali they visited temples
And went to a yoga retreat
They stood on their heads and took deep breaths
Then after they massaged their feet.
Some days they didn`t go anywhere
And just stayed home for a rest
travelling was always fun
But it was being together that was best.
