One day when i joined the amazing race i went to Brazil at rio de janeiro to get to the statue but i don't know where to go. I have been trying to tell people but they ignore me. I am lost. My friend is also lost so we rented a house. When we got there we looked on our phones where to go.

We just need to look for a bus to travel to the statue because we don't have a car. But we saw no bus. So we just went to bed. When we woke up I looked outside and saw a bus quickly lets go but as we got to the bus stop it drove away.

I was so scared we had no money to go back to NZ and i don't know how to speak portagesse but my friend does. he went outside and asked olá estamos perdidos no brasil podemos ter algum dinheiro   for the bus then finley someone gave us money. I was so happy it was just enough for two people on the bus. 

We finally got on and went to the statue. We met someone there to give us enough money to go back to NZ we were the second team to make it and we got $5000

He must have used the crystal for his power.

So hefty, clumsy and brainy all followed me and went back to the village we didn't know what to do. Then suddenly Brainy had an idea the smurfs would sneakily go to Gatgamel’s lair, find a key, steal the crystal and free the other smurfs.

Good idea brainy said hefty lets go now wait but first we need to be geared up we got guns aka water guns. We got bombs aka water balloons we got ink now that is real now lets go. We arrived ohhh snap find the key find the key said brainy wait where's clumsy.
