My name is Henry, Henry the raindrop.

This is the story of my life starting from 330

B.C.E. to 1456 C.E. Before my life was really boring at the depths of a lake until the Danube
River picked me up and took me on an adventure.
It all started when the Danube River in Europe took me and sent me towards the Black
Sea. I was lonely in the Danube River, but I made some new friends with the Danube water
droplets. They are very accepting and friendly compared to others Ive met and I was glad some
were on the same track going to the Black Sea.
Once my new friends and I got to the Black Sea, we were worried since there was a lot
more space than we were used to. Sadly, I didnt spend long in the Black Sea because a kelp
plant took me, separated me from my friends, and transported me into air. I was sucked up into
the clouds and was super surprised by how light I was. I was lonely but I was reunited with my
old Danube friends later, as you will see.

The Hagia Sophia in the Byzantine Empire

I fell as rain as I got colder and heavier and I fell somewhere in the Byzantine Empire
during a chariot race with my Danube friends, so I tried everything to make myself evaporate
even if I did have to leave them again. I eventually did evaporate into the clouds. There was
nothing new there so I took the next precipitation train out of there, and fell as snow on the

ocean. It was my first time there in the ocean. It was pretty wild! I kept getting thrown around
violently but Ive heard you could get stuck there.
Luckily I didnt get stuck in the ocean, but I was beamed back up to the clouds. The
clouds were getting super boring. I was fortunate enough to catch the next rain train to the
mountains for the first time. I was surprised at how cold it was and I froze in ice for quite a while,
until the sun thawed me out and allowed me to soak into the groundwater for the first time.
This ended my adventure because after not too long I was sucked up from the
groundwater into a tree in 1456 C.E.
