Solution
Dear Diary,
22 May, 2015
I had a very eventful day today. I made three new friends. The cyclone which whisked me to the wonderful Land of Oz is where I met them. They had come to this land because they wanted help from the Wizard of Oz. We had to journey through a forest before we reached this wonderful land. We came across a lot of difficulties. Each time my friends helped me out of it. We have finally reached the wonderful Emerald City of Oz. I will let you know what happens as we have to go in search of the Wizard of Oz.
