Mark’s friends had invited him to Sky National Park to ride the Cloud Monorail, which went to the top of the mountain. Mark didn’t feel like going, but he went because he had nothing better to do. He checked his watch as the monorail departed and then blankly looked out the window. Clouds surrounded the monorail, so all he saw was grey for what felt like forever. Just as he started feeling sleepy, the monorail rose above the clouds. He opened his mouth as he saw the most beautiful mountains spreading out before him all the way to the ocean. He couldn’t believe how marvelous nature could be and wondered what he would have missed if he hadn’t come.
