Beach

Asher's friend Raina was in town and we decided to go to the beach with her. Raina moved (with her parents of course) to Thailand two years ago, but Asher and Raina remain good friends even though they only see each other once a year. I stocked the car with toys for the drive. One toy was a "ViewMaster." You put in circular slides and look through a binocular like device to see the pictures. We only have pictures of "The Little Mermaid" but Asher doesn't know that movie. Raina took a turn. "It is Ariel" Raina reported. "No it is Dora!" Asher answered a little too loudly. "Ariel!" Now Raina was screaming even louder than Asher. "Dora!" screamed Asher (of course it is Raina that is correct) "It is Ariel!" Raina was really getting mad. And loud. Now I will skip many more of these exchanges and let the reader use their imagination. Wait, I will help. Imagine more screaming. Louder and louder, but the same things ...
