“Can you see the city?” asked the frog who was below.
“Yes,” answered the fro who had climbed up. “I can see it. It looks just like our village.”

A nightmare trip, I remember was three years ago when I was going to the airport with

hours before the flight. We left home with plenty of time, but when we got to the freeway, there
was a huge traffic jam! The traffic wasn’t moving at all. We didn’t know what to do. It was too
late to go another way, so we just sat in the car getting more and more stressed.
After ten minutes, the traffic started moving slowly. We decided to leave the freeway and
try to find another way to the airport. Unfortunately, I wasn’t sure of the way and we got
completely lost. We was sure that we were going to miss the flight. Finally, we arrived at the
airport just thirty minutes before the plane was going to leave. The woman at the check in
counter said that we couldn’t check in our luggage because it was too late, so we had to run with

Recent Development at the Post Office

            Post offices in industrial countries have a policy to provide their customers with a better

normally allowed to handle ordinary mail, although some private carriers have been increasingly
in circulating catalogues, magazines, and merchandise samples. Private parcel carriers also
compete with the post office.
