Answer

After I finished my work at 1 pm, I headed home driving at a constant speed of 30 mi/h which is 10 miles away-west from my work office. It was only 20 minutes to be home. After I just reached home my little girl asked me to drive her to the zoo as I promised last time. The zoo is 30 miles away- east of home. So, she was ready after 10 minutes and I took her to the zoo. We moved east toward the zoo at 60 mi/h to catch the day. After 10 minutes when we were 10 miles away from home, she asked me to buy some chocolate from the coming gas station. So, I stopped at the station and I bought her chocolate and a coffee for me. We stayed at this station for 10 minutes. Now we started moving again toward the zoo and then I drove at 40 mi/h for half hour (30 minutes) and finally we were there.
