"Hi! My name is Walter, the Water Droplet. My life is unique and adventurous." You may be asking yourself, How is the life of a water droplet adventurous? "Well, today you are going to learn how something as small as myself lives an adventurous lifestyle."

"Have you ever heard of the Water Cycle? The water cycle is the continuous circulation of water from the sea to the atmosphere to the land and back to the sea. Come on this amazing journey with me, as I show you a day in my life during the Water Cycle."

"Can you find me? If you can’t look at the glass of lemonade. I am currently in the CONDENSATION phase of the water cycle. This occurs when water vapor loses the latent heat of vaporization and reverts to a liquid."

"Oh no! It seems as if I am falling off the cup. Where will I end up next? It seems like I have landed in a Hyacinth Garden. Now I am sitting on a leaf of this beautiful flower. Uh oh, it seems like I’m not the only water droplet here today."

"Here is when we get into the TRANSPIRATION phase of the water cycle. When plants absorb all the water needed through their roots and plant tissues, excess water is released into the atmosphere."

"I just took in the latent heat of vaporization to get to the next phase of the water cycle, EVAPOTRANSPIRATION. Since the Hyacinth Garden did not need any more water, I took in solar energy, converted myself into water vapor, and now I am floating in the atmosphere."
