"Wooooooowww!!" said Timmy, as he rushed up onto the top deck of the ship, "Check it out!"
Eric panted as his brother ran ahead.
"Timm-t--Timmy wait up!!" he panted. He hurried after him, with Ryan bringing up the rear. Man, it was HOT up here!
"Dude! Why would your parents invite MY parents on a cruise during the hottest week of the year!?" Ryan panted.
"They...didn't know it...was...going to BE this...hot when...they booked the...tickets!" said Eric. He reached the railings at the edge of the deck, and started taking photographs with his phone.
"This is so cool!" he said.
Above them, the ship's foghorn blared and the PA system came alive.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WELCOME ABOARD THE DIAMOND PRINCESS. THE SHIP WILL BE DEPARTING IN 15 MINUTES, 15 MINUTES, 15 MINUTES! All ashore that are going ashore, thank you! Departing in 15 MINUTES!"
"C'mon let's get up to the bow!" said Ryan. They hurried along the top deck to the front of the ship and leaned over the railings to watch. Slowly, the bow swung outwards and the ship began to pull away from the pier.
"Wow!"
"Hey kids! Havin' fun?"
It was Eric and Timothy's dad, Bob.
"Hey dad! This is so cool!" said Eric. Ryan nodded.
"Thanks for inviting me, Mr. Wintergreen!"
"Oh it's my pleasure, Ry", said Bob. "Great view, huh? Hey, gimme your phone, son. I'll get a snapshot of the three of you!"
Eric wrapped an arm around his brother and Ryan stood behind Timothy.
"Alright, this way!...No, Timmy, a little to the left...that's right. Now look at me...Good! Woah!"
Bob's hat flew off in the breeze and danced and skidded across the deck, before being caught against a railing. He grabbed it and tucked it under his arm!
"Windy!" he said, and laughed. "C'mon kids! We better get inside! What are you gonna do, huh?"
