As the sun rose one morning, at the end of July, And fluffy clouds drifted across the blue sky, Ava danced round her room, shouting: 'Hip, hip, hooray! 'It's holiday time! And we're going TODAY!'

七月底的一个清晨，太阳刚升起， 蓬松的云朵在蓝天上飘来飘去， 艾娃在房间里转着圈跳舞，大声喊： “嗨嗨，万岁！ 放假啦！ 我们今天就要出发啦！”

Mum packed the clothes, Baby Roo packed a teddy, While Dad said (repeatedly): 'Are we all ready?!' Ava waited and waited, among all her stuff, With her invisible kitten, Squishy McFluff.

妈妈收拾衣服，小鲁宝宝装了个泰迪熊， 爸爸则（一遍又一遍地）问： “我们都准备好了吗？！” 艾娃在她的一堆东西里等啊等， 身边陪着她的隐形小猫，软绒绒·麦克弗拉夫。

At last, they set off, all so happy and merry, Loading the car and then boarding a ferry. Their holiday started at quarter to three, When they dropped off their bags and went straight to the sea. Ava arranged all her buckets and spades. Mum had a parasol, Dad wore his shades,

终于，他们出发了，个个都开心得不得了， 把东西搬上车，然后坐上了渡轮。 他们的假期两点四十五分正式开启， 他们放下行李就直奔海边。 艾娃把她的小桶小铲子都摆好。 妈妈撑着遮阳伞，爸爸戴着墨镜，
