I'm driving down a frontage road in a jeep full of people. We're speeding and I noticed that the water is full of old ruined boats, thousands and thousands, and all the buildings are ruins too. Everything around us is crumbling, rotting, falling apart. We are completely surrounded by the skeletons of old yachts and high rises and they just stretch on and on. We come to some tunnels and I have to remind the driver to pay attention so we don't crash into the walls. We speed through a field where a bunch of people with machine guns are standing around watching over the workers in the field. I beg the driver not to crash but of course he does, and the men with guns capture us and march us along with the rest of their slaves.

i was walking through campus and it was really beautiful. the leaves were all changing colors and laying in a deep carpet on the ground. i came along a path to a pond with a fountain where a humpback whale was swimming. i leaned over the edge of the pond and it stuck its head out onto the grass and let me pet him. i jumped into the water and put my arms around its neck and we swam together. it was beautiful and i thought maybe i could communicate with him. i made a high pitched sound and he shrieked too and stopped moving and went silent. i panicked, i pushed him up to the surface so he could breathe but he shriveled up and i held him in the palm of my hand and he crumbled away.

i went down into this cave with eric. we climbed down a rusty spiral staircase into a large cavern. in the cavern was a huge oven and a huge table, and people had settled in there and made a huge fire. eric wanted to go down but i was so afraid that the spirits of the cave would come out and kill us all and cook us in the oven. i ran out of the cave. i came out on a floating island with a small movie theater and tall trees and a narrow lawn. a strong wind blew across the island and i found that if i spread my arms and jumped up a little i could float in the air. i floated up to top of the tree and sat on a branch. i jumped back off again and practiced flying around. i almost flew off the edge a couple times.
