When they got of the coast guard ship they were escorted with some help of their cars to a refugee camp. When they arrived at the camp the first thing Mahmoud and his mother was to search every tent for Mahmoud's younger sister Hana, but they didn't find nothing. After the refugee's boarded a ferry from Lesbos to Athens and at night they would sneek their way past the border into Macedoni.
Looking at their way into Macedonia they noticed a big group of policemen guarding the border. Since they couldn't enter through there Mahmoud's father look at a map in his phone where they could sneak in through without getting caught. He found a tiny spot in the forest where they decided to sneak in through at night. Mahmoud's mother was doing what she was most focused on, going to every tent and family to look for Hana Mahmoud's younger sister. When it was later a taxi driver pulled up to them and asked them if they needed a ride somewhere he charged 25 euros each so 100 euros in total for the whole family.
About halfway through the car ride the driver stoped and out of nothing pulled out a pistol and in that second Mahmoud's family was being held on gunpoint and the taxi driver demanded 300 euros triple of what he asked earlier. Mahmoud's father paid the money to keep all of them to alive not only they were broke now but they had to walk miles all the way to the next border. When they got to the border they saw an infantry of Hungarian soldiers closing the gates from the side, All the refugees decided to make a run for it and it became a riot all the Hungarian soldiers started to throw tear gas cans at people one landed near Mahmoud and his lungs were destroyed and felt like he was gonna die.
Mahmoud and lots of other refugees were loaded into a truck with plastic zip ties on their wrist's. Every refugee that was loaded into a truck was sent to a prison. They picked Mahmoud's father and 8 other man to put in a jail cell. When they were inside Mahmoud and his father kept screaming for there mother and Waleed, It was silent no one answered. Later the UN came to inspect the living conditions in this so called "refugee camp" While all the guards were distracted with the UN Waleed and Mahmoud escaped and made a run for it and the guards couldn't do nothing since the UN was here so they were free and so was everybody, so Mahmoud and him family were on their way to Austria.
After the escape Mahmoud and his family reunited and made a plan. When they escaped the UN followed them to make everybody aware of the events and what refugee's go through so it made Mahmoud for the first time make himself visible like that they could hear his story and everyone can know about it. Since the escape there wasn't really any kind of supplies like food or drinks. When they reached the border of Austria, since they were jewish it was time for their last prayer of the day so they all got to ground and started praying for the last time of the day. When they went through the border, they were greeted and applauded by many Austrian's who heard there story thanks to the UN.They were handed all kinds of presents from Austrians food, water and many more supplies. After they loaded up on food they started their last trip to Berlin, Germany.
