Chapter 4

In Turkey

The Dalaman airport is big. There are a lot of dogs from different countries. They speak in languages which I do not understand.

Now it is time to take our luggage. We go to the luggage claim tape. We see a lot of bags of different colors: grey, brown, black, pink, yellow… But where are our bags?

We wait and wait and wait. Finally, Betsy cries:

“I see my pink bag! I am so glad!”

“Yes, my dear, this is your bag! You can take it from the luggage claim tape,” Mother says.

Betsy takes her bag.

“Mummy,” she says, “There is a little piece of paper on my pink bag.”

“Yes my dear, please read it”

“It says ‘Betsy”.

“This is very good. It means — this bag is yours.”

“Of course this bag is mine!”

“Well, my dear,” Mummy says, “In the airport there are a lot of bags, right?”

“Yes,” Betsy says.

“So the other puppy girl can have the same pink bag as yours. That is why you need to find your name on this little piece of paper. Now you know for sure — this is your bag!”

“Thank you Mummy!”

“I see my big brown bag!” says our Daddy.

Daddy takes his bag from the luggage claim tape. He looks at the little piece of paper on his bag it says: ‘Arnold’. My Dad is glad.

“I see my yellow bag on the claim tape!” Mommy says.

“I see my green bag!” Timmy says.

And finally I see my blue bag!

“We have our luggage now. It is time to go out of the airport.” Daddy says.

We go outside the airport.

“I can’t believe we are in Turkey now!” I say. “I am abroad for the first time in my life. It is very exciting!”

“Yes, it is so exciting to travel abroad,” Daddy says.

“The sun is shining so brightly in Turkey.” Betsy says.

“Oh, it is so hot here,” Timmy says.

“You are right, Timmy,” Mummy says. “Puppies, please, put your hats on.”

Betsy, Timmy and I open our bags to take our hats. I find my Cowboy hat and put it on. I look like a real Cowboy now!

Betsy puts her pink cap on. She looks very pretty in it.

“Betsy, you look like a real tourist now!” Daddy says.

“Thanks Daddy,” my sister answers.

But Timmy cannot find his hat in his bag.

“Mummy, Daddy,” He cries, “I forgot to put my hat in the bag!”

“Timmy, do not worry we are going to buy a new hat for you. We have just one little problem…”

“What’s the problem?” asks Timmy.

“Does anyone know how to say ‘hat’ in Turkish?”
