This trip hasn't turned out to be that bad. A good hotel with anything you could ever want and a poolside, beach and much more. Today was the day. The day when the lives of the Miller's would be changed forever. Today was the day they were going on a safari.
" this is going to be boring" Jonah said
"yeah, why can't we stay here. Or how about we stay here and you and dad go by yourselves." Riley said.
" Oh hush, both of you, we came here as a family to spend more time together, no ones staying, come on it will be fun." Cheryl said optimistically.
Spending 3 day in the jungle on an island seemed fun, but most tourists only stayed for 2 nights because of the weather it can get foggy and rainy. Fortunately the forecast for the week was looking pretty good.
Jim Austin was a tall bulky man, he was their tour guide.
" I can assure you that you will be safe with me, there is nothing to worry about. "I am after all the one who's worked here the longest." he added.
A couple hours later they were off on an adventure. All around them and everywhere they looked there were many exotic plants. There were small plants and big plants some were yellow, some were orange and some were green and some were blue. There were a lot of insects in the air like small mosquito's, Riley didn't fancy them at all. Cheryl was startled by a noise in the bushes behind her, William went to comfort her. Jim told her not to worry.
"it's probably only a bird or a small animal like a rabbit.Not to worry."
Not to worry, probably. Cheryl needed to be convinced. It started to get dark so they gathered wood. Jim told them that this was going to be just like going camping. They set up their tents, ate some dinner and got ready for bed. Later on in the early morning Jonah was awaken by the sound of the wind hurling by his tent. He walked around for a while but he didn't stray to far because he still caught a glimpse of the campfire. Jonah saw a green light coming from a distance but decided to go back to the campgrounds for it would be morning soon and his mother would have a heart attack if she did not find him in his tent.
Everyone woke up when the sun came up bright and early when the birds were chirping so loud that you can't bare to hear them any longer.. For breakfast they had cold strawberry pop tarts. The food wasn't like the food at the hotel but it was decent. The weather..was just as how it was predicted..clear skies and mildly warm. William was helping Jim putting all the food away, tie up the tents and gather anything else that was left. Cheryl was confused because she thought they were going to camp out in the same spot for the rest of the trip and not spending the night a new spot every time. They put some essential materials in a hiking backpack and soon they were on their way.
