The Start of Our Exciting Journey

WOOOHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

We were taken to Isla Nublar by Hammond's private plane. On the way to Isla Nublar, we met many people on our way to the Cloud Island (the other name besides Isla Nublar). We met Donald Gennaro, a lawyer from InGen Corporation, Ian Malcolm, a mathematician,  Dennis Nedry, a computer expert, and Hammond himself.

The journey on the plane finally ended when the plane arrived at San Jose, the capital city of Costa Rica and continue our journey by helicopter. That is when we met Nedry. We met the rest of the party on the plane. The helicopter took us to our destination, Isla Nublar or Jurasssic Park. The island is rather huge. This is what the Island looked like:

Oooooh yeah. This is the map of Isla Nublar

Wow, this is so extraordinary. You cannot find it anywhere except here in Jurassic Park. There are real dinosaurs! Believe your eyes, you are not imagining. The dinosaurs were huge and amazing and .... and .... (well, they're so amazing that I can hardly describe them). However,  no matter how amazing they are, their enclosures were surrounded with electric fences and deep moats. Your eyes can feast upon these dinosaurs.

Okay, back to the story. As soon as we arrived at Isla Nublar, we were introduced to the publicity manager, Ed Regis. He took us to the Safari Lodge. Oh, what a place! This Lodge looks like a jail. No matter how many times we complain, our sleeping place would still be this Lodge (or you can sleep outside if you want to be eaten by the dinosaurs).

We went to the Visitors' Centre to meet our guide again (well, Ed Regis is both the publicity manager and the guide). Then, there came a sudden surprise. John Hammond's grandchildren were coming too! Oh no. We came here to work and not to have a holiday. Gennaro started to complain to Hammond and threatened him that he would close the park if the island is not safe enough. And the worst part is that the children came after hearing that the island is a resort. Oh noooooooo................. Here's another problem...............

The Mystery, the Journey and ME..........

Hello readers. I am a famous palaeontologist. I work in Montana, USA. My job is digging and collecting dinosaurs' bones in expeditions. I am also the author of a book entitiled 'The Lost World of the Dinosaurs'. If you want to know who I am, just guess. You could guess all the famous palaeontogists' names but there is only one answer. Yes, I am Dr. Alan Grant. I work with Dr. Ellie Sattler. She is a palaeobotanist. She helps me a lot in my expeditions. Her job is to study how plants lived and grew many milions of years ago. Our job is quite similar, only that I study about dinosaurs and she studies about plants. 

Our mystery begins when we were asked by a lawyer from the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency). He asked lots of questions about John Hammond who paid us for our work on dinosaurs. Then, after the conversation, Ellie came to me as she had just received a telephone call and a fax about a reptile (or dinosaur) who looks like a compsognathus attacking babies and a 10-year-old girl at a beach in Costa Rica

Then, the telephone rang and I found out that John Hammond called me. He was inviting Ellie and me to his island, Isla Nublar. He'll pay us a very huge sum of money each for being his consultants. We couldn't refuse. That sum of money will pay for our research for the next two years. So, reluctantly, we accept his request. AND, THE JOURNEY BEGINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
