MARCO POLO and his Green Screen

 

            Anna School Banana Ditcher and I arrrived in class one day full of energy (as we are everyday). We had finished our project days before and decided we were going to play a game. The game consisted of a more complicated version of Marco Polo. The boundaries…Well there were no boundaries, this was the World Version. The object of the game was for our teacher, Mr. O’CramravoT (hmm I wonder what this spells backwards), to travel the world without us spotting him, and we were to not long after begin the search. Every place we had to go to we had to yell “MARCO”, then he yelled back “POLO” and to our advantage we had super hearing powers which comes in handy in our photo class because we are great listeners! The whole “fish out of water” came into play if he were anywhere off ground for example a plane, or on the moon. Mr. O’CramravoT had a special portable green screen that aloud him to jump through it and go anywhere he was picturing in his mind. This was to be used at his advantage. The game had started and we gave him a 20 minute head start, then we were off!!! 
We decided to start in Africa. MARCO! POLO! It sounded as if he was in the midst of the humid, wild safari, where lions, tigers, giraffes, zebras, elephants, and even Simba were running wildly! However, he was nowhere in site so we yelled once more MARCO! POLO! This time he sounded like he was on the move to China

What better place to hide then the Great Wall of China. It was 2150 feet long and 39 feet high. We yelled but again could not see him so we traveled to the Sphinx in Egypt
We thought we saw him after yelling 3 or 4 times but apparently we were wrong. 
. The next place, which we were sure he went to because he obviously loves sunflower seeds( after his embarrassing seed shells in a empty gum pack incident), so we made a visit to the sunflower fields of Ireland. Again we heard him and the same as before, no success in spotting him.
