"Ready or not, here I come! Tara yelled before she pulled herself underneath the pole to slide down the waterslide. She was the first person down, and she screamed the whole way. Everyone laughed, listening and watching.
"SHE ENJOY." Jack signed to Sue, who was next up.
Sue smiled. "Good, cause I know I am too!" She yelled, then slid down the slide herself. She enjoyed the slide, but when she righted herself at the end, she saw Tara on the steps, rubbing her head. "You OK?" she asked and signed.
Tara nodded. "Yeah, this is the exact reason why I don't do anything that doesn't involve airbags."
"What's wrong?" Jack asked, coming out of the water as well, seeing Tara rubbing her head, a wince on her face.
"Oh, I just banged my head on my way out." She replied.
"I see Tippy Toes Tara is at it again!" Bobby exclaimed when he came down, the group starting to congregate around the ride exit. He received a glare from Tara in response.
"Come on, let's go again!" Sue suggested, trying to relieve the situation.
"Yeah!" Bobby replied, totally forgetting his comment.

"Ah! I forgot how much I missed rock climbing!" Cathi exclaimed, halfway up the wall. She looked down at Myles, still standing on the ground. "Come on up! The view's great!"
"I'd much rather stay down here, thank you." He replied.
"Aw, come on, you'll love it!" She coaxed.
After much debating, he finally gave in, and slowly climbed up the wall to her.
"See? It's not that bad after all!" She replied.
"I guess not." He reluctantly replied.
"So? You ready to climb a real mountain when we get home?"
Myles nervously chuckled. "I don't think so."
Cathi smiled. "I will make a hiker and climber out of you yet!"
Myles smiled at her, not believing her in the least.

"Did you know," Mya started, she and Josh laying by the poolside, she reading a Hawaii tour guide. "That the Nene Goose is one of the rarest goose in Hawaii?"
"What kind of name is Nene?" Josh asked, looking up from the book he was reading.
Mya shrugged. "They're actually quite cute." She said, showing him a picture from the book.
"Almost looks like a Canada Goose that got in a fight, its feathers all ruffled." He replied.
"That's mean." She said, despite holding back her laughter.
"It's true!"
"Yeah, well, if you were going extinct, you'd look that way too!"
"Would I now?" He asked, a wide smile on his face.
Mya saw the glint in his eye. "Yes you would." She quickly said, before dropping the book on the lounger and darting into the pool, which was feet away.
"This boat's only so big!" He called after her, before he too jumped in. Within seconds, he caught her, and she playfully screamed. Soon they both calmed down, but still smiled at each other in each other's arms.
"Nene goose. Go figure." He said, chuckling.

"Hya there." Howie said, walking up to a girl at the bar.
"You're that guy from last night." She said, a bit disgustedly.
"Yeah." Howie replied, trying to act cool. "I'm memorable, aren't I?"
"Yeah, in a very bad way." She said, walking away.
"That poor man." Darcy said, watching Howie from a booth she and Bobby were sitting in a few yards away. "He just can't get anyone, can he?"
"Who, Howie?" Bobby asked. "Aw, he'll be fine."
"You know, I know a girl in LA that would probably be the perfect match for him. I could call her, and she could meet us when we arrive back in San Diego."
"I can stand one matchmaker in my life, not two, please, don't call. Besides, I really don't feel like hearing about it all the way back to DC!"
"What, you don't like for people to find love?" Darcy asked, slightly smiling.
"No, I don't mind, just as long as I don't hear about it all day for four days straight."
"I still think he'd like her."
"Maybe," he said, holding his finger up. "Maybe you can call her near the end of the trip, OK?"
She smiled, happy that he gave in. "Alright."
