Around the world in 80 days 2!!!!

Around the world in 80 days 2

We’ve just finished reading the book: Around the world in 80 days by Jules Verne, and let me tell it was awesome.. What a book. But what happens next is that, we get the idea to pursue their wager, and travel the world in 80 days ourselves. But to make things a bit more interesting, we’re doing it in a canoe.

It was an afternoon as cold as the surface of mercury at nighttime. The sun stood brightly on the sky, and waves were still. In the horizon a large building rose over the glancing rooftops, where an eagle circulated around. It was the head quarter of Rimmel London, what a sight. We were all packed and ready to go, with our canoe filled to the brim with Heinz Ketchup, Arla milk, tomatoes, cucumber and fried chicken. Yesterday we had prepared the canoe by nailing iron plates with a hammer onto the sides, so that we would be able to withstand a clash with even a desert eagle. A couple walked on the waterfront near us. The man looked like Kennedy and the woman looked like Mona Lisa, and they were staring at our companion, a duck. “Excuse me” they asked. “Why are you packing up a canoe, haven’t you read the sign” and she pointed the slippery underlay sign. And we saw to our fright that the water was frozen, which meant that we weren’t able to complete our journey. Sad, washed up and disappointed we returned to Langholt, where we encountered playing children and overheard a conversation by our parents, wherein they talked about given us a car, so that we would be able to continue our journey. So all in all, it was a really good day…. To be continued.
