Emma: I told them we’re going Rock climbing instead.
Ricardo: I was really looking forward to a game of golf.
Emma: You play golf all the time. How often do you get the chance to do other outdoor activities, such as Horseback riding and Zip-lining. We can do both this afternoon if you’re Up for it.
Ricardo: I thought the point of this vacation was to rest and Recharge.
Emma: We do need to recharge, but what we need is excitement, not rest. Maybe Kareem and Karen will want to join us tomorrow.
Ricardo: Why? What are we doing tomorrow?
Emma: How about a watersport, maybe Kayaking, Windsurfing, or Water skiing? Too bad we can’t go Scuba diving, but we can do some Snorkeling.
Ricardo: I like the idea of spending some time on the water, but Whale watching is More my speed.
Emma: Don’t you want to feel the wind through your hair and the excitement Pumping through your veins?
Ricardo: I didn’t know you were such an Adrenaline junkie.
Emma: Guilty as charged. I’m going to take Skydiving lessons next month. Want to join me?
