The London Bridge is Falling Down

Abby T., 6th grade

Hey my name is Alex and this is my story about me and my saving the world or at least that’s what I like to say. This is how it happened when we were on vacation when we saw the London Bridge. As you might think we were in London. Ops I mean Melbourne on the Great Ocean Road. If you are officially lost let me clarify. We were in Melbourne, Australia on a really long road next to the ocean. We saw a ton of surfers it was awesome. Our dad was singing a song, our mom was yelling at him to be quite and my sis and I were chillaxing. In case you are also lost in this story I was 9 and my sister was 11. (Okyta back to business.) We went to see the 12 (8) apostils. They are 8 rock figures with some ship parts around them.  Then we saw London Bridge. This is a big rock figure that you can rock across. So we walked across it. It was kind of scary standing on the middle of an ocean on a big rock figure.  Soon I heard my mom yelling for my sister to get away from the edge. My mom is so scared that one of us will fall off the rock. 

Soon we were on the road again. Then we heard this rock falling in the water. We turned strait around and we saw the bridge falling down. It was creepy. Me and my sister flipped out our cells and started texting. Our mom was like totally freaking out and dad was trying to comfort her. We drove back but soon my distracted mom saw a koala. She just had to get out a take 5 billion pictures of it. I mean it is just a little animal it is not that amazing.  She just had to take pictures of it wail people died or were close to it.

             When we finally got there we saw people huddling on the middle rock. My sister had learned something about what to do in this situation. First she called the police, the ambulance and the fire department. Then tried to build a bridge she did it successfully but it was really skinny. I knew a song that could get people across it safe fully. So I started singing.

Ah ah ah  Da da da la la la la 

 Soon everyone on the rock was on our side.  

My sister and I were the hero’s. We got our pictures taken and a certificate.  We were in the news and we got interviewed. Mom and dad called it our 15 minutes of fame. When we went home we told all our friends and we got to meet the president. The End     

“Come on sissy can you read me another one.” “No it is time for you to go to sleep nighty night.” Nighty night sis but promise me you will read me another entre from mommies journal tomorrow.”  “Ok night.”
