Shreya’s secret adventure!
I was on my way to watch the Rio Olympics when I saw a strange exotic creature something more like a cute looking chinchilla it was grey and white with some pink and yellow it was so adorable!
I would be late so I had to keep on going and guess what the little creature was following me ,I couldn’t resist leaving it behind so I took it with me to the Rio Olympics I had got another ticket anyway.
When we reached the stadium the little creature was fast asleep I thought that it would wake up by the noise of the opening ceremony so I just put it in a seat next to me
Soon it woke up and looked around, it kept on jumping on its seat, “it’s the Rio Olympics stadium “it squeaked quietly, I didn’t know it could talk English, that's amazing!!Even though I still don't know what it is.
In a few minutes time it had started, the creature looked very interested along with the others,I never knew that animals were so interested in olympics !
The opening ceremony was awesome with the amazing flaming fireworks and a massive parrot in the middle of the stadium, we also watched the Olympic torch get lit and all of it, I have never been to the Olympics before, it was so exciting.
That was a time I would never ever forget! And for the creature it still lies as a unsolved mystery...
