    We moved to North America so we could get more money and more land we sold our rice farm and took all of our things with us. We took the S.S Malkomore, it took us about a week to North America. My dad said that we would be gettting land in the midwest
  • Ariving a Ellis Island

    A week later we arrived at Ellis Island. There was 4 lines, One was
    5-12, Another was 13-18, the other one was 19-50 and babies, last line was for 51 and older. I got into the line and they were taking blood and i didnt really like getting blood drawn but i need to for my family. After that there was a few more things but i was ok with it. I was finaly done, I then went looking for my family i found them looking for me and we started to head to the midwest of North America.
