Yeah, they got pillows 20 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:18,639 Speaker 2: and blankets and oh wow, that looks so cool. Emma, 21 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 2: can you hand me that blanket over there? Said Avery? 22 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 2: All right, perfect, it looks so good. Let's get in 23 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 2: it and lay down, and oh, let's see how comfy 24 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 2: it is. It definitely looked like a very comfy boat. 25 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 2: Emma and Avery both climbed into their blanket boat and 26 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: laid down. They were right, Oh, this is the most 27 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 2: perfect boat we've ever made, said Emma. I know just 28 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 2: Oh I could fall asleep in here, said Avery. They 29 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 2: started to dream about maybe this blanket boat could be 30 00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 2: like their bed. Oh that's so cool. Her parents walked 31 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 2: over and said, hey, guys, this right here is a 32 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:10,839 Speaker 2: magical blanket, really, said Avery. Oh. Absolutely. If you put 33 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 2: it over your head and then pop out from it, 34 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 2: it will transport you into a real ocean, and hopefully 35 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 2: this boat will float, really, said Emma. Her eyes looked 36 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 2: back and forth. 37 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: Can we try it? 38 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 2: Oh? Absolutely, here you go, Avery, Let's do it together. 39 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:37,679 Speaker 2: Emma and Avery both crawled underneath this big, puffy blanket. 40 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 2: All right, so how does this work? Exactly? Said Avery? 41 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 2: I don't know. Uh. Like, they just said, we have 42 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 2: to go under the blanket and then when we pop 43 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 2: our heads out, and all the smokes look at that. 44 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 2: Emma was the first to take her head out from 45 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,639 Speaker 2: under this magical blanket, and as they both peered out 46 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 2: from the blanket. They were floating in the middle of 47 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 2: the ocean. They were both very excited and terrified at 48 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 2: the same time. Are we gonna sink? Shouted Avery. Emma 49 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 2: took a look around, and wait a second, Look how 50 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 2: big this thing is. Emma and Avery both stood up 51 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 2: in their blanket boat and it was absolutely huge. It 52 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 2: was way bigger than they remembered it being in the 53 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 2: living room. But wow, this actually turned out really well, 54 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 2: Emma said. They started to walk around their boat and 55 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 2: they were really impressed. They had done a really good job. Help, 56 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 2: somebody help me. What's that sound? Look over there? Avery 57 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 2: was pointing to an island that was nearby, and there 58 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 2: was some kind of creature on the shore. It was 59 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 2: waving his arms or something and needs help. All right, Emma, 60 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 2: grab the sails and let's turn the boat and head 61 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 2: to that island. They were very good sailors and turned 62 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 2: the sailboat and it went right to the island. They 63 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 2: hopped out of the boat splash into the crystal clear 64 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 2: blue ocean. They were in some kind of tropical place. 65 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 2: This island was full of palm trees. It was beautiful. Hey, 66 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: what's going on? Brodacious bros. Emma and Avery couldn't believe it. 67 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 2: There was a penguin on the beach. What's going on? Well, 68 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 2: thanks for coming to help. I totally need it. Oh Hi, 69 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 2: my name's Avery and this is Emma. Hi. Yeah, and uh, 70 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 2: what in the world is a penguin like you doing 71 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 2: on a tropical island. Well, uh, I actually came from 72 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 2: space and I'm totally look in for some gnarly, prodaciously 73 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 2: large sheets of ice. And I think I made a 74 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 2: wrong turn. You're looking for ice, and yeah, you're definitely 75 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 2: not gonna find it here. How did you said you 76 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: got here on a spaceship? Where is it? Well, you see, 77 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 2: it kind of crashed into that palm tree over there, 78 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 2: and so it's not totally broken. But I could maybe 79 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 2: hit a ride with y'all on your awesome blanket boat. 80 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,799 Speaker 2: Emma and Avery looked at each other. They were always 81 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,840 Speaker 2: up for an amazing adventure and this was exactly that. 82 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 2: Let's go, Emma, Avery and their new penguin friend Polio, 83 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 2: hopped onto the blanket boat and off they sailed. Yeah, 84 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 2: you see, I was told to go to Antarctica and 85 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 2: I totally made a wrong turn. Could you help me 86 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 2: get there. Absolutely, I think it's this way. Emma checked 87 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 2: her compass and yep, let's head south. They sailed the 88 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 2: boat very far south. They left that tropical, beautiful, warm island, 89 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 2: and pretty soon they were airy cold, said Avery. Well 90 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 2: you're on a boat made of blankets, bros. Let's just 91 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 2: cuddle up in the blankets, said Polio the penguin. Emma 92 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 2: and Avery laughed, because yeah, they've forgotten that their entire 93 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 2: boat was made of blankets, and so if they were cold, 94 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 2: this was a perfect place to be. Emma and Avery 95 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 2: both grabbed some blankets and warmed up. Ah, that's so 96 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:55,599 Speaker 2: much better. So Paulio, tell us, where are you from. Oh, 97 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 2: I'm totally from outer space, from the farthest stars and 98 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 2: plain and it's way farther than that. And yeah, I 99 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 2: was looking for a giant sheet of ice. And I 100 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 2: first went to the Moon and made some new friends there, 101 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 2: and then they said to go to Antarctica. And then 102 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 2: when I came into Earth, I saw some really cool 103 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 2: palm trees and so I was like, hold on, I 104 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 2: don't want to go to Antarctica. First, I want to 105 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 2: go to this tropical island. And then when I got there, 106 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 2: then I accidentally crashed my spaceship, and then I got 107 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 2: stuck there. Wow that is a crazy story, Emma laughed. Wow. 108 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: So did you make a wrong turn on accident or 109 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 2: did it just kind of happen? Well, you know, I 110 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 2: was just taking an advantage of the moment, and I 111 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 2: just I had to see those killer palm trees. They're 112 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 2: so bready we don't have those in space. Wow. Well, 113 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 2: I'm glad you got to see the palm trees, and 114 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 2: I'm glad we were able to come here and help. Yeah, 115 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 2: and how did you get here in this killer boat 116 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 2: made of blankets? I wish I had a boat made 117 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 2: a blank Well, Avery explained to Polio how it all happened, 118 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 2: and how their parents had this magic blanket that transported 119 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 2: them into the real ocean from their living room. Wow, 120 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 2: that is totally awesome. I wish I had a magical 121 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 2: blanket like that. Ooh, is that ice up there? Bros. 122 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 2: Poulio was so excited. Off in the distance was Antarctica, 123 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 2: a land filled with snow and ice, a perfect place 124 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 2: for Polio the penguin. He was so excited he jumped 125 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 2: right out of the boat. We'll see you guys letter 126 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 2: buy splash. As he splashed into the water, he swam 127 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 2: the rest of the way to the ice and met 128 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 2: up with some more penguin friends. Woo, holy smokes, that 129 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 2: was a crazy adventure, Emma said Avery. They both looked 130 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 2: at each other and knew that it was time to 131 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 2: get home.
