Wonderful Chance

Sailing Away
I am leaving Greece! After much thought and preparation, I have decided to go to America! I must sneak away from my family, for they do not want me to go. -

Land Ho!
After months of sailing on a ship, I have finally made it! I will disguise myself as a sister of my best friend whose family is on our voyage. We are about to dock. -
Bored and Tired
Because of my unusual eye color (violet), we were detained for over a week! If we aren’t let out soon, my boyfriend is going to think we didn’t come! -
Going West
Because I was detained, my boyfriend left a note for us and went West. I guess we have to go. We leave tomorrow. -
