Travel News

How far did I travel this week?:

This week, I will be traveling all the way to Egypt to see the Great Pyramids of Giza.

It has been a lifelong dream of mine to see them in person!

How far have I traveled on this journey so far?:

Egypt will be the farthest place I have ever traveled. From California, it is about 7,600 miles away. That is about a 17–21 hour plane ride! That is almost the same as driving across the United States more than twice!

How did I get around this week?:

I walked almost everywhere and used the city bus when I needed to go farther. Many people in Rome use public transportation instead of driving cars.

What was the most interesting place I visited this week?:

The most interesting place I visited was the RAI Radio station. We spoke with a radio host and watched a live broadcast happen in real time. It was exciting to see how radio shows are made behind the scenes.

Other Travel News from this week:

There was news about a transportation strike happening soon. A strike is when workers stop working to protest because they want better pay or safer working conditions. When this happens, buses and trains may not run on schedule.
