I woke up to see I was on a leaf in Times Square! The sun was shining bright. I must have been transpired.  Times Square was beautiful! I WAS BEING LIFTED UP TO THE SKY! I was evaporating.

  In the sky there were other raindrops. I was starting to join other raindrops into a group. We were forming into a cloud! We were moving very quickly! The wind was moving us.

It was 3 days later...

"AHHHHHHHHH!"

I'm falling! I must be precipitating! Then the ground got closer, and closer until.... SPLAT!

I fell to the ground!

"Whoa! Where am I?" I said. " Oh! I'm in Paducah, Kentucky!"

I am in a puddle.

It was a few days later when I was lifted up to the sky as water vapor again! In the sky I joined a few other raindrops. We were condensing! After a while we were a cloud!

A LONG time later...

"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

It was raining. We were precipitating! A little while later, I landed on an oddly shaped object. It was rough, bumpy, and round. I felt holes in it, too!

The wind blew me off of the oddly shaped object. I fell to to the ground and looked back at what I was just blown off of. I had been run off! It was a METEORITE! I knew there was a meteorite that fell on Ella Island.

 I hadn't been on Ella Island for long until a wave came by and swept me up. I went into the ocean with a bunch of different raindrops.

In the ocean I met a water droplet named Karl! Karl was very nice. He had apparently come from a cloud. Karl had condensed and precipitated into the ocean. His story started in Europe!

 In a few days, Karl washed up onto a beach in Venezuela while I kept flowing on. I had been in the ocean a little while longer, until I was lifted up into the sky for the THIRD TIME. I was done with this mess. It wasn't until a little later I would notice I was done with evaporating.

A few moments later....

Of course it rained!

I fell into the Iguazu River.

I followed the river for a long time. There were so many beautiful cities. After a long time in the river, I saw the Iguazu Falls!

I am really scared! It is almost my turn!

"AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

I am falling down the Iguazu Falls! I wonder where I am going to be now!

AAHHHHHHHHH!

It had felt like I was on a roller coaster!

A few moments later.....

I am back in the Iguazu River! This place again!

Ugh. I'm done with this river.

The river eventually dumped me out and into the ocean. In the ocean I met a raindrop named Wilson. His story started in the Sahara Desert.

After a long time in the ocean, I was evaporated for the FOURTH TIME. In the sky I met Karl! He had come all the way from Canada!

A few days later...

It is raining now. I am falling to the ground.

the ground is really close! I'll get to see where I am. I can almost tell where I am!
