Let's tell a story

Considering both games (I spy... and photo scavenger) are both stalled for a while, I though about a new game.

Let's tell a story. Of course, it has to be photo ilustrated. Everyone is invited to participate with photos and subsequent events happening.

I will start the game (and try to offer examples...)

Story: "My life"

When I was young, I enjoyed going to the beach with my friends....

(next poster will do something like this

We loved to play soccer at sunset...

(and the next poster will do something like this

Sometimes, grandpa and gradma will come with us....

Get the idea? So, what is next? (Let's try to keep the story within a logical thread, even if ridiculous, funny or watever.)

I like the idea however I wonder if we can should make the story continous ...so I would pick up on your last photo, continue from there and then have someone else start from my last photo, and so on and so on . How does that sound ?

That is exactly the idea. Every poster picks up on the last poster's photo (and story "chapter"). I may even download every entry and edit it into a "comic book" publishing, that later will be converted into a pdf for downloading.

Please, pick up where "grandpa and grandma....."

However, things got very uncomfortable when the storm rolled in. We had to dash for shelter.

The white house however was completely empty. Looked like an abandoned beach bar, so we went to the other building.

To our surprise we finally found the underground train station that everybody had talked about. We could not believe our eyes as the train just rolled in.

Once upon a time I was a little pomegranate blossom.

Then I turned into a little pomegranate all green.

Eventually I grew into a big red pomegranate.
