The boys and Dave were having breakfast in the hotel restaurant .Dave was cutting the boys pancakes into pieces using a fork and knife .Alvin looked around getting embarrassed. He was looking around to make sure none was looking at them.
"Dave ,don't you think we are a little old enough to be cutting up our own pancakes ",Alvin looks over eyeing his dad oddly .
"Sorry Alvin old habits are hard to break ",Dave said almost chuckling "So what do you want to do today fellas ?"
"I want to go on a cruise and see dolphins ",Theodore said stuffing part of a pancake in his mouth .
"Chew your food Theodore ",Dave said ,correcting him .
"How about we go water skiing ",Alvin said, jumping up on his two feet standing on the chair .
"I would like to go the children's museum ",Simon said taking a bite of pancakes glancing up from the book he was reading .
Dave smiled at his sons "let's do as much of that as we can ",He picked his glass of juice taking a drink .
Any hour later the boys and Dave were sitting on a seat near the side of a big boat .Dave had all three of the boys on his lap they were wearing life jackets .
Theodore pointed out towards the water "wow,Dave look, it's two dolphins jumping together ."Dave takes out a camera taking a pictures .
"They swim so beautifully together ",Dave comments hugging his boys .
"They swim almost as good as me ",Alvin said, turning the situation to himself .
"Do we always have to bring the conversation back to you Alvin ",Simon just eyes his brother .
"Of course I am the most important after all ",Alvin said smiling .
As they reach a little island. They get off and change into swim gear .Soon all three boys are hanging onto a dolphin swimming with them .Dave is snapping pictures .After a while of swimming they soon change and get back on the boat heading back toward the shore .
After getting back to shore .They decided to try going water skiing . Alvin is holding onto a rope wearing his water skis and life jacket .He smiles at his dad and brothers as the boat starts moving .He starts laughing hysterically as he is zipping through the water .He is flipping one way and then back the other again .Dave tried his hand at water skiing, but ended up in the water .While Theodore and Simon just choose to just watch .They stop for a lunch at a small cafe before they head off to the science museum. Simon was buzzing with excitement .
"Aren't you just having the best time ",Simon said, smiling at his brothers and dad .
"You always know the best way to spend the day ",Alvin was getting a little bored until they got to the world of music studio .Then he got just as excited as Simon .Theodore really seem to like the pet central .Dave was just enjoying watching his sons enjoying themselves .
When they were sitting at dinner the boys were so exhausted they fell asleep while they were eating . Dave ended up carrying them back to the hotel and putting them to bed .The next morning they are packing to go home .Dave was checking the room to make sure they hadn't forgot anything .
"I hope we remember everything I would hate to leave something behind and have to come back for it later ",Dave said smiling at his son .
"Don't worry Dave I checked the room and I didn't find anything missing ",Simon said smiling up at his dad .Dave reached over giving Simon a hug .As they are checking out Dave looks over at Alvin .
Alvin did you make all these charges to the room ",Dave eyes his son with angry .Alvin just chuckles, trying to hide behind his brother Simon .Dave was looking through his bag .
"What's wrong Dave ",Theodore asked ,looking up at him
"I just get this odd feeling we are forgetting something ",Dave said, looking though his bag again .He decided not to worry about it ."It doesn't matter, I have everything I need right here .",He puts his arm around his son's shoulders ,giving them a quick hug as they walk toward the parking lot .
Back to the girls
"I can't believe our train was delayed that long ",Brittany said as they were walking down the street together after they arrived in Miami ."Now I have to go to the beach looking a mess .And me without my bag .It had all my makeup ."
"Not necessarily Brittany",Eleanor said ,looking up in front of the them at hair and nail salon .
"Is it fate or just what we needed ",Brittany smiled with delight "and after that we can hit the boutique and pick out some beach dresses "
"Does it really matter what we look like Brittany.",Jeanette said looking at her sisters .
"Of course it matters Jeanette we will on a beach full of gorgeous looking guys ",Brittany squeals jumping up and down with excitement ."We can't meet them like a total mess ."
"Come Jeanette it will be fun and we could also use some new swimsuits ",Eleanor said smiling over at Jeanette .Jeanette followed her two sisters she wasn't really much into getting a makeover but she wasn't going to be the only one being left behind .
Dave had been driving down the road for a few hours .The boys were talking about how much fun they had with their dad the day before .Alvin noticed something on the ground, he picked it up throwing it into the front seat of the car .
"Ewww it's Brittany disgusting bag, it's probably infested with cooties ",Alvin said wrinkling his nose .Dave started to chuckle for minute, but then he looked at the bag and suddenly starting making a U-Turn.
"Dave ,what's wrong? ",Simon said ,holding onto to Theodore as they made a sharp turn heading back toward the beach .
"I just remembered what I forgot it was the girls ",He said his eyes full of that scared look again .
"If the girls were coming to Miami .Why didn't they just come with you? ",Simon asked, looking at his dad poking his head over the seat .
"It's a long story Simon .Do me favor and call Jeanette ask her where they are "Dave said looking back ,at his son as he tried calling her not getting an answer ."We have to go back and find them .Make sure you're wearing your seat belts boys"
