Here is a quicko translation of the story I just wrote for class.
"For starters, we forgot the motor. Not the motor for our car, mind you, but the motor for the boat. If we had forgotten the motor for the car I think we would have noticed. When we got to the lake we made a sail out of our rain jackets, and with that contraption we succeeded in reaching the middle of the lake. We hung out there for three hours trying to catch some fish. Unfortunately we had also forgotten our bait. We tried using cheese as bait, but after three hours we had no more cheese and still no fish. All we had left was some bread.
Before we had time to try using bread as bait, it started to rain. We frantically demolished our sail and put on our raincoats. We heard rolls of thunder. This made us nervous because without our sail we were stuck in the middle of lake. Suddenly a flash of lightening struck the metal pole that we had jimmied to hang our "sail." The lightening dismantled it for us. It also succeeded in pitching us overboard.
We swam to shore, pushing the boat ahead of us. When we got there we discovered that the metal pole had been a more important part of the boat trailer than we had thought. In the end we dragged back home without fish, without food, and without a boat. In addition we were scorched and soaked at the same time, a truly bizarre situation!
