6:00 p.m.

Dear Diary,
Last Sunday, I along with my family went to the central zoo. We were a total of 7 members—me, mom & dad, my little sister, Vaani, grandpa and grandma, and our dog Bruno. We hired a local six-seater cab to reach the zoo. We also packed some snacks and games to play on the way. We reached the zoo at around 1 p.m. We bought the tickets and went inside. At first, we saw a troop of monkeys. Some were mimicking us while some were jumping from tree to tree. We also fed some bananas to them. Then we saw a herd of elephants. Next to the elephants were the herd of deer. They had big horns. Then, we went inside the aquarium and saw many fishes and snakes. I was completely shocked to see the pride of lions in their cage. They were so scary. One of them looked sick. The zookeeper said he was the oldest of them all. After seeing the animals, we saw different kinds of birds. We were lucky enough to spot some peacocks. They looked so beautiful. In the evening, we all were tired, so we sat down in the garden area and had some yummy food. We also played cricket and badminton. We even played catch the ball with Bruno. On the way back home, dad treated us with our favourite ice-cream flavours. We all had a wonderful time.

ans–Answers may vary. 

Probable Answer.

Recently, I was told by my dad to accompany him to the railway station to receive a distant aunt who was visiting us after a long time. I happily agreed because I had never visited the railway station before. As soon as we entered the station, I saw how busy the place was. There were few platforms and trains were coming and going, picking and dropping passengers. People were waiting on the benches for their respective trains and also many were waiting just like us to receive somebody. Announcements were continuously heard about trains. There was also an enquiry section where passengers crowded to enquire about trains. I saw a number of people in black coats standing near the entry and exit points of the station. I came to know they were the ticket collector. Their job is to check passengers tickets while entering and exiting the station. There were many stalls inside the railway station like a mini-market, selling items such as magazines, biscuits, cold drinks, etc. Soon, my aunt arrived and we left the station. It was one of the most hectic places I had ever visited.
