My Adventure in the Gobi Desert
AD & FD of Pok Oi Hospital Mrs Cheng Yam On School, Chan Yan Ting, Fiction: Group 1
O
ne day, I took my time machine and flew back to the Gobi Desert in Mongolia, China. I
set the year for 1700. It was Qing Dynasty at that time.
I saw sand everywhere. It was as golden as the sun. It was beautiful. I also saw some
tall mountains and a few shrubs. There were some goats, antelopes, camels, hares and
lizards. Suddenly, I saw a snow leopard, a brown bear and a wolf. I was afraid.
Someone came out to rescue me. A girl and a fairy were smiling at me. The girl was called
Man Man and she was the Princess of Mongolia. She was kind. The name of the fairy was Mary.
She was tiny. She was flying around my head.
Princess Man Man and Mary the fairy showed me around the Gobi Desert. We rode camels
together. It was fun. We found some fossil eggs of dinosaurs. We decided to fly back to the ancient
times by my time machine to visit the dinosaurs.
We saw a huge but gentle dinosaur eating grass. It was an Apatosaurus which was a herbivore.
It was friendly. We rode on it and played with it. Suddenly, a Tyrannosaurus ran to us. We were
shocked and scared. Mary the fairy took out her magic wand and made the Tyrannosaurus
disappear in one second. We all felt relieved. We said goodbye to the Apatosaurus and flew back to
1700.
Princess Man Man brought Mary the fairy and I to her palace. It was a yurt. We watched
sunset together. It was marvelous. We had dinner in the palace. It was very cold and windy
outside and we were freezing. We had hot roast lamb, warm goat milk, goat cheese and pastries. I
taught Princess Man Man to make goat milk candies. She felt interested. I found a chocolate in my
pocket and gave it to her. She said it was delicious and liked it very much.
Princess Man Man asked me to stay in the palace for one night so that we could watch the
sunrise the next morning, so I slept with her in the yurt. Mary the fairy had her own tiny bed
besides Princess Man Man.
The three of us got up very early the next morning. The sky was still dark. We watched the
sunrise together. It was fascinating. I said goodbye to my two good friends and flew back to 2013
in my time machine. I told them I would visit them again. I really had an exciting adventure in
the Gobi Desert.
