Play zoom out with me

Let’s play the “Zoom Out” game! It’s fun, easy, and collaborative! Just take a look at the picture below. What do you think is happening? How did that happen? What is the story behind this? I just need one commenter to get the story going, and the rest of us will continue to add ONE comment until his story is told. Just follow these simple guidelines to contribute to our mysterious story:
The 1st commenter starts the story in the comments below by writing one sentence (include the subject in photo). Number your sentence
The 2nd commenter copies the sentence, pastes it in their comment, and adds onto the story by writing the next thing they would see if the picture was “Zoomed Out.”
This process continues until the story ends.
I will update my blog with the full story at the end.

This is what I am going to say on my Flipgrid project with Australia
Christmas is my favourite project. On the most  beautiful, sunny day I went to visit my extended family .They live far away that it took 2 and a half hours to driven there.W hen we got there we hugged everyone and started getting the Christmas eve supper ready . I played with my cousins. My aunty,uncle and 2 cousins came all the way from Switzerland. We all found a wonderful holiday house to stay in .We went to our room. There were 2 bunk beds and a mattress . I chose a top bunk  bed. .At the house there was a pool so we swam.I stayed in the pool for 4 hours.We had supper and got to bed,  and my mom told us she would wake us up at 12:00 to open presents.

Three hours later it was 12:00. We got up and opened some presents.I got toys called Salvaneans, plus ,jewellery and a doll's house. The year before I got an iPad.We stayed up until morning and opened more presents . It was so much fun and thankfully Christmas is coming soon again.

Once upon a time there lived a great warrior . At this moment he is more of a boy . The boy's name was Merlin . He lived in a town call Rowana . You haven't heard of it because there is a secret way in. Noone knows about Rowana.  Merlin sat down and got ready for his party. He went outside. Suddenly he heard a deep snoring. He switched on his torch and got the fright of his life! A wolf! A sleepoing wolf! A BIG, sleeping wolf!



Can you finish my story for me?
