A Big Move

Tegan said goodbye to her friends at school. They promised to keep in touch and visit each other. Her brother, who was 15, was also saying goodbye to his friends. The family packed up their house and loaded everything into a big moving truck. It was time to start their journey to the Sunshine Coast.

Goodbyes and New Beginnings

The drive to Queensland was long but exciting. Tegan and her brother played games and watched movies in the car. They made a few stops to stretch their legs and see some sights. The guinea pigs were safely in their travel cage, nibbling on carrots. After a few days, they finally arrived at their new home.
