Welcome to Gaia! ::

Eric laughs at Sonja as she drags him to go play. "Okay, okay! I'm coming." When they get there he says" Wow look at that. What a great castle!" The twins kiss Sonja. "Look what we made!" They were very proud.

Eric sits on the sand with them and watches Stephan make the moat as Lissa helps Yuki make the tower. "This is a pretty fancy castle. I think it needs a drawbridge." says Eric. He gets a piece of driftwood and puts it over the moat where the entrance to the castle is.

Eric smiles and plays with Alex. "This is for the bridge." Alex puts down the piece of wood and Eric puts it back. "Alex want to help daddy build the moat?" Alex giggles and so Eric lets him crawl to Stephan.

Jack comes over and sees everyone building the castle. "Well looks like everyone is having fun. When you are ready, the breakfast buffet is open. Here is some sun screen for you all. It is my special blend that is organic so it does not hurt the fish and is safe for the kids." He gives them a few bottles to pass around.

The twins tell Jack "Every came to help us build a really big castle!"

The twins put on some lotion and say "Aw but what about our castle?"

Eric smiles "We can play with your castle later after breakfast." He smiles at Sonja and says "Mmm my wife is so nice." He helps put some on her back.

Jack says "I will make sure your castle is safe. And later after breakfast Misty from the bar can take you to Turtle Bay. She will teach you to snorkel and you can see the turtles and fish!" The twins clap their hands "Okay!"

Jack leads them to the main hut where the restaurant and bar are. Misty greets them. "Hi I am Misty, what can I get you to drink? You can have a seat at the big table and help yourself to the buffet."

The twin says "Milk please!" Eric says "Pineapple juice please."

The twins follow Sonja "Ewe that does not go together...." they shrug and get their own food. Eric gets a little of everything to try. "It all goes to the same place."

They sit down and Misty brings their drinks. She says to the twins " You want to play with the turtles and see the fish?" The twins say "yes please!" Misty says "Okay we will have a picnic there for lunch. I will arrange for everything."

Misty says "Turtle beach is 15 minutes from here. I will have the staff make a picnic lunch for us and load up the shuttle bus with equipment. You can all snorkel and look at the tropical fish and coral and there are giant turtles that you can play with. For the baby, you guys can ride in the glass bottom boat and see the fish so the baby can go with you." The twins nodded very excited. "Oooh it sound like lots of fun!" they said.

Eric says "It sounds wonderful!" He eats his breakfast and juice. The twins enjoy the food. "Mmm this is very good!"

Eric looks at her plate "Wow you were hungry." He figured it was good since she tended not to eat much. Especially with the wedding and wanting to look good in her dress. He whispers back "okay."

He and the twins ate the rest of their food. Lissa was happy to be able to finish eating her food.

Misty had run off to get the shuttle bus loaded with gear and have the kitchen make a picnic lunch for them.

They all laugh with Sonja not sure what got into her, she seemed to even like her medicine. The twins say "We are going to play with turtles like in Finding Nemo!" They had not seen the movie yet but saw a little bit at the video store when they went shopping with Sonja.

Lissa says "That is a great movie! We should watch it later after dinner maybe." The twins nod "Jack, do you have that movie?" Jack says "Yes we have Finding Nemo I will set it up for you to watch later." The twins says "Thank you!"

The twins say "Oh yah, we forgot!" Misty comes back from getting things ready and listens to their conversation. She says "We don't have pirates but we have a Jack and lots of fish that look like Nemo." The twins giggle. "The shuttle bus is ready when you are." says Misty.
