Phineas Flynn, a short 9 year old boy with red hair and a triangle head, was waving to his step brother, Ferb who was heading out to the dentist for the day. He smiled as he watched Ferb drive away. "Phineas check the mail before you come in." said his mom as she walked in the house. Phineas smiled, "Ok mom!" He walked over to his mail box as he suddenly noticed his platypus. "Oh, there you are Perry!" Phineas chuckled. His pet platypus, Perry always left around lunch and came back in time for dinner each day. Phineas was used to it and was always excited when Perry came back, but where did he go each day? Phineas opened the mailbox and checked each letter to see if anything was for him. "Bill, bill, ad, bill, coupons." Phineas said checking each letter, "Now what's this!? A letter, for me?!" Phineas yelled excitedly. He showed his platypus the letter. "Look Perry! It's for me!" Phineas cheered. Usually, Phineas didn't get exciting letters, he got bills. But this letter didn't look like a bill to Phineas. He opened it and then jumped for joy. "Listen to this Perry, Dear Phineas Flynn; you have been invited to go on a cruise for 5 days. You can bring one family member along for this trip. We will pick you up on July 19 at 10:00 AM. Please be ready! Signed, the Caribbean Cruise line." Phineas read. He dashed inside and yelled, "Read this, read this!" His mom read the letter, "How exciting, but you can't bring Ferb, remember, after his dentist appointment he goes straight to camp for 2 weeks." Phineas' smile turned upside down. "Oh yeah." Phineas thought for a moment and looked at Perry. He quickly cheered up! "I can bring Perry!" yelled Phineas! He ran upstairs and got packed. Perry was so excited! He was going on a trip! When Phineas was done packing and had finished supper, he went straight to bed. He was going to love tomorrow!
