Emma: Are you ready?
Ricardo: Sure, but why are you dressed like that? I thought we were going to play golf with Kareem and Karen.
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?
Ricardo: I consider skydiving a spectator sport!
