By Amanda Jane Smith



Olive the sheep, Kiko the elephant and Ramon the hawk are three friends who love to explore, they call themselves the world travelers. When they travel, they like to take photographs so they never forget to bring a camera with them.

This scrapbook was made to show some of the places Olive, Kiko and Ramon have visited.



Olive at the Jacksonville Zoo, FL

For the first stop on thier trip the travelers head to Jacksonville, Florida.

Olive, Kiko and Ramon really enjoyed the time they spent in Florida. There are so many activities to do and places to visit. While in Jacksonville, the trio went to the zoo where Olive meet Felix the seal.

Felix told Olive that seals love to swim and their favorite food is yummy fish.


Now on to the San Juan mountains in Colorado. Colorado is often called "colorful Colorado" by people who live there and also by folks who come and visit.

Kiko liked looking at the tall, beautiful mountains. I feel so small next to these mountains thought Kiko. Kiko also noticed the white snow on the very top of the green mountains.

Ramon at Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin, Ireland

Now it is time to leave America and head to Europe . The three friends hopped on a long airplane ride across the Atlantic Ocean. They land in Ireland's capital city which is called Dublin.

The three friends wanted to visit Dublin's oldest building first. The oldest building is Christ Church Cathedral.

Ramon took a tour of the church and learned it had first been built over one thousand years ago. Wow thought Ramon, everyone must take really good care of this church, it looks beautiful.



All the world travelers love exploring different places for many reasons. While visiting a new area, Olive treasures meeting new people the most.

After leaving Dublin, the group took a short airplane ride over to London, England. Then they visited Big Ben, the famous clocktower which is one of the world's most popular tourist attractions.

At Big Ben Olive met a new friend, a young puppy named Brooke.

 



Kiko on the Zambezi River in Africa

The three friends have left London and are now in the country of Africa .

While in Africa , Kiko went boating on Africa's fourth largest river, the Zambezi River . Kiko really likes to travel so he can try new activities, he is also very brave.

 

The three friends saw many other people boating on the river. Boating on the Zambezi River is a good way for people to get from one place to another. There are not many cars in this area of Africa so people like to row boats so they do not need to walk.



Ramon in the Amazon Rainforest

Olive, Kiko and Ramon's last stop on their great adventure was to the Amazon Rainforest in South America . The three friends all agreed that the rainforest was one of the best places they explored.

Here in South America, the trio made plenty of new friends like Daniella the cockatoo that Ramon met.

The Amazon Rainforest has the largest population of animals in the world and this trip to South America supplied many fun activities for all the friends to enjoy.



Olive, Kiko and Ramon have finished their great trip around the world. They have visited many fun places and made new friends along the way.

Now the world travelers are all back at home and are excited to share their stories and pictures with friends and family. Olive, Kiko and Ramon had such a great time exploring the globe and can not wait to begin their next adventure.
