    Summary: In today’s story, our main character, Jenny, is flying home to Boston at the end of her vacation and experiences a problem with one of her bags.

    Questions in this podcast:

    1. What is the meaning of “travel light” in the text?

    She usually prefers to travel light, but this time she had checked a bag because of the gifts she'd bought during her vacation in Peru.

    1. What is the meaning of “off the beaten track” in the text?

    After two weeks of exploring places off the beaten track in the Andes Mountains and a weekend at Miami beach, she was ready to head home to Boston.

    FUN FACT: Another version of this phrase is “off the beaten path”!

    (Adapted from the original story) Sweater Delayed by Tiffany Jackson, 2024
