       The Carrot walked up to the Harbor Docks and rang the tiny, rusted,metal bell at the stand that was labeled "Water Taxi".He rand the bell over and over again until a lobster with a thick brown mustache popped up from the water." 'Ello there mate", said the Lobster in a fake Australian accent.The Carrot exclaimed to him that he needed to get to the Salty Waters and the lobster agreed to take him if he only had an eye patch that the carrot could give him.The Carrot then remembered that he had left his eye patch at home (in the ground) and politely declined but still offered his cat, (Snoodle) his home (the ground) and he also told the Lobster that he would be in his will if he only would give him a ride to the Salty Waters. The Lobster still insisted that the Carrot should give him the eye patch and if not then, and i quote "He ain't goin no where". So of course the Carrot had to figure out where he was going to get an eye patch from. I mean he couldn't make one, he only had a piece of string, a paperclip, a rubber band, an button, and 123,653,600 million dollers. He wandered the streets trying to find out where he could get an eye patch from. He passed 3 eye patch stores as he was walking through the streets of course but he didn't stop. I know, another example of carrot stupidity. Then he had a brilliant idea, he remembered that when the Giraffe died in the salty waters that he had dropped an eye patch. He was so happy that he had figured out an idea that he didn't even notice that the reason why he needed and eye patch in the first place was to give to the Lobster  so he could get a ride to the Salty Waters. He built a raft and then started sailing South (the direction of the Salty Waters)
