今天小E以及大家分享的是一隻企鵝氣球的巧妙旅行的故事：3歲的英國小朋友不小心搞丟了自己的企鵝氣球，卻收到了企鵝從世界各地「寄來的明信片」……溫馨，有趣，讓人看到日子的但願與善意！

——我是企鵝巧妙之旅分割線——

Earlier this month, Logan, 3, went to the West Midland Safari Park with his family and had a great time.

8月初，3歲的Logan以及家人一塊兒去了西米德蘭野生動物園，他們玩得很開心。

But sadly, later that day he lost his penguin balloon and was distraught. His auntie, Lavania Oluban, made this appeal on Facebook.

但遺憾的是，當天晚些時候他搞丟了企鵝氣球，因而他很傷心。於是，Lavania Oluban阿姨就在臉書上發了一個帖子。

▲今天，我3歲的侄子在野生動物園搞丟了一隻很可愛的企鵝氣球，他很傷心……經由一番討論後，咱們認為企鵝氣球正在獨自旅行。所以正在旅行或計劃旅行的可愛朋友們，你們可以寄一些關於企鵝Pengy旅行的明信片給Logan嗎？

Oluban told BuzzFeed News: "I took my nephews and sister out to the West Midland Safari Park for a treat, and after a brilliant day we bought my nephew a fabulous penguin balloon (he has a penguin soft toy at home called Pengy)."

Oluban在接受BuzzFeed採訪時說：「我請姐姐以及侄子去動物園玩，咱們渡過了愉快的一天，後來咱們給小侄兒買了一個有趣的企鵝氣球（Logan家裡也有一個企鵝毛絨玩具，叫Pengy）」

"Anyway, after losing him [the balloon] when we opened the car door it took quite a while to convince Logan that Pengy was going travelling. I put up a Facebook post to ask some friends and family who are off on their holidays to send postcards from Pengy to Logan about his travelling adventures."

「總之，當咱們開啟舊檔車門把氣球搞丟後，咱們花了一些時間才讓Logan相信Pengy是去旅行了。我在臉書上發了個帖子，請那些在外度假的朋友們以Pengy的名義給Logan寄明信片，講一講Pengy的冒險之旅。」

But would friends and family on Facebook step up to the task?

然而，這些人真的會說明Logan嗎？

▲Indeed they would. Within weeks Logan got cards from "Pengy" from all over Europe and North America sent to his home in Birmingham, updating him on the elusive bird's adventures.

事實上，他們還真會。幾周以內，Logan就收到了Pengy從歐洲以及北美各地寄到他在伯明翰的家的明信片，給他講這隻難以捉摸的小鳥的冒險閱歷。

▲Cards arrived from London, where Pengy had sardine sandwiches with the Queen, and Colorado, where he made friends with a big elk called Thomas.

有些卡片是從倫敦寄來的，Pengy在那裡以及女王吃沙丁魚三明治，還有從科羅拉多寄來的，在那裡Pengy以及一隻名叫Thomas的大麋鹿成為了好朋友。

▲One arrived from the Isle of Cumbrae in Scotland (and Pengy said sorry for flying away).

這張來自蘇格蘭的坎佈雷島，Pengy說負疚它飛走了。

▲Cards arrived from Devon and Dublin too.

也有來自德文島以及都柏林的明信片。

In total there were about 30 cards, including ones from New York City, Maryland, Spain and the Isle of Wight.

最後，Logan大概收到30張明信片，內含來自紐約，馬裡蘭，西班牙還有懷特島的。

Lavania said that a sad balloon-related incident has now been turned into a happy one.

Lavania姑姑說，這原先是一個以及氣球有關的悲傷的小插曲，現在已變為了一件快活的事情。

"He absolutely loves the stories and all of the pictures on the postcards too, and asks a lot of questions about all the places, and has pointed them out on to his globe (with help)," she said.

「他超愛這些故事以及明信片上的圖片，他會問許多關於這些處所的問題，在別人的說明下能在他的地球儀上指出這些處所。」

白了個白，小E已萌化，喵嗚，咱們明兒見~
