Native Americans attack Fourth Stop


After the nagotiations your group somehow gets into the time machine again. As you all squeze again inside the telephone booth and trying to dial 2001 so that you can return home, a familiar whirling sensation begins. Everyone wonders where this crazy machine will land this time!!!
It lands near a large lake, it is extremely beautiful ... but what is all this noise and gunshots? Soon you will find out that sailors with guns are helping native Americans (their name is Algonkians) in an attack against a group of Iroquois.

Hudsons' Voyage Fifth Stop


That was really close!! Just on time you squeeze into the booth again. You don't even manage to rotate the dial when the machine stops again with a loud sound. You hear strange voices. You are inside an office ... the people are speaking in Dutch. It is obvious that one of them is trying to convince the others to finance his trip.
 
Suddenly they have a look at you … you are trying to escape but in vain. You are now hostages of this man and you are about to go to this trip with him!! Where are you going this time??

Explorers Voyages Last Stop


Captain Hudson lets you go and you get into the booth again thinking that this was your last stop. But the time machine has a different opinion ...
It lands again and this time you find yourselves inside a library. It is quiet and people are reading ... a lady pass by and hands you a piece of paper. You glimpse at each other and then start reading.
Is this the end of your ordeals?

What an experience!!
"Just get into the booth. I hope this idea I found in the library about time travel will work!!" says one of your group!! Everyone squashes into the phone booth. You adjust the dial and with a sudden shake the time machine takes off again.
As it comes to a rest, someone in your group shouts, "Look we are at the park; We have made it to the present!!".
