Going to Isla Nublar ..

Hey guys! Ready for adventure ;D ? Today I and Ellie went to Choteau airport to meet Hammond and went to Isla Nublar. Before we went to the airport, the parcel of information about the island arrived in front of my office. It was an interesting island. There were plans of buildings and a map. The map showed that Isla Nublar was long and narrow. There were roads, tunnels and a lake. There was also a Visitors’ Centre in the north and the island was divided into five sections. Between the roads and the sections there were concrete moats and electric fences. Ellie said it’s like a zoo, I agreed. The roads were high up so we could see over the fences and the moats. Everything was enormous! Even there’s a moat which is 9 m wide! Can you guys imagine that? The map also showed that all the buildings in Isla Nublar were made of concrete and had thick walls.         

When we arrived in the airport, we went directly to the plane. There a few people that also were invited by Hammond. Donald Gennaro, the lawyer of InGen Incorporated was already inside the plane. Gennaro was about 30 years old. He was wearing an expensive grey suit and glasses with metal frames. Then, he shook hand with me and Ellie. Honestly, I didn’t like this guy.

Hammond’s plane landed at Dallas airport four hours after it left Choteau. A tall, thin man got on and he was about 35 years old. I think he liked black because everything that he wore was black. Hammond called him ‘Professor’. Oh so he was a professor, but I think he more looked like a rock star. After that, he introduced himself. His name was Ian Malcolm and he did math. I’ve heard about him before. He was a famous mathematician and interested in how the world worked.

Then, an unexpected conversation between Malcolm and Hammond happened.  Malcolm said that he heard that Hammond had a serious problem on his island. Hammond replied angrily that there’s no problem, everything was fine. Malcolm said that the resort wouldn’t work. Hammond was a high tempered man. So he stood up and he went to sit in another part of the plane. I just could sit quietly and watched them.

It’s a long journey to get to Isla Nublar. I tried to read the report for InGen. I didn’t understand so I asked Malcolm. He explained the chaos theory. Then, I understood. Malcolm also said that Isla Nublar will start to go wrong and will continue to go wrong. I hope everything just fine.

Ok guys, I’m very tired and need to have rest. When I arrive in the island, I will post another blog about my experience there. I wish you guys can also come with me to the island. Wish me luck guys :D !!

About Me ..

        Hi ! I'm Alan Grant. I have sun-tanned skin and blue eyes. People usually call me Dr Grant. I am a palaeontologist. I'm studying the fossils of the dinosaurs and other animals that lived long time ago. I worked in Montana, USA. I'm athletic and I like children. I am the author of The Lost World of the Dinosaurs.
        On Wednesday, when I was kneeling on the ground brushing dust away from a tiny bone, a lawyer from EPA came to me. His name is Bob Morris. He asked me about John Hammond. He asked me about his work and what is he doing now in Isla Nublar. So, I told him what I knew. He also asked me about Gennaro.
        After Bob went home, a doctor at Columbia University sent me a fax. I was surprised. She sent me a fax of an X-ray of a lizard who lived more than 200 million years ago. I think it's a compsognathus. I read the note which came with the X-ray and it said that a lizard found on Cabo Blanco Beach in Costa Rica. This lizard attacked a 10-year-old girl and also babies. Hmm .. very confusing right? There hasn't been a lizard like this on Earth for more than million years. And now, that lizard shown up. There has been something wrong. What must I do?
        And after that, there’s a call from John Hammond. Hammond is a millionaire. He is the owner of InGen Incorporated. He has two grandchildren and I hope can meet them. He very interested in dinosaurs. He gives money to people doing research on dinosaurs. That’s enough form introducing him.

        He asked me about Bob, the lawyer. He also invited me to his island near Costa Rica, called Isla Nublar. He bought the island 10 years ago. He also invited my friend, Dr. Ellie Sattler. Oh I’m sorry, I forgot to introduce her. Ellie is a paleobotanist who studies plants from the time of dinosaurs. She's nice and she also helps me study the fossils. Hammond said Isla Nublar is going to be a resort and animal park. Hammond pay I and Ellie to be his consultants, he'd like our opinion about his island and will pay us $60 000 each. That much money can pay for our research for the next two years! So I'm coming. He said that he'll be waiting us in Choteau airport at 5 p.m. tomorrow evening. I can’t wait to come to Isla Nublar. However, how about the lizard? How do you guys think? Hmm .. I think I will go to Isla Nublar first then finish that problem. Beside, Isla Nublar is near Costa Rica right :D ? I will take some pictures there and upload them here so you guys can see them ;) . I am very excited and I hope everything just gonna be fine :)
