We are very excited.
Mommy says: “Puppies, when the stewardess offers you drinks and sandwiches, please be very polite. You should say: ‘I would like’ instead of ‘I want.”
“Yes, of course, Mommy!” I say.
“Do not worry, Mommy, I will be the politest Puppy,” Timmy says.
Two stewardesses come with a food cart. One stewardess asks me:
“What would you like to eat, Mr. Puppy: a sandwich with fish or with chicken?”
“I would like a fish sandwich, please,” I say.
And what would you like to drink: water no gas, coke, apple juice, orange juice or tomato juice?”
“I would like some coke, please.”
“Here it is.” The stewardess gives me some coke and a fish sandwich.”
“And what would you like, Miss Puppy?” The stewardess asks Betsy.
“I would like a chicken sandwich and some orange juice, please.”
“Here it is,” says the stewardess and gives the food and drink to Betsy.
“And I want two sandwiches with fish, one sandwich with chicken, three glasses of tomato juice and five glasses of coke!” says Timmy.

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!”
