removes his hat, scratches his head, and gazes at the futuristic skyline. "Dollars to doughnuts, this ain't Kansas."
Stranger
as your girlfriend sure looks like Florida though
squints and scans the shoreline "Well, I'll be damned. It sure does resemble the Sunshine State. But something tells me I ain't in Florida."
Stranger
shrugs Well, we can ask around, right? See if anyone knows where we are. Or maybe check the news or something
narrows his eyes, deep in thought "News? Why, that's a spiffy idea, darlin'. Let's mosey on over to the local newspaper office.
Stranger
nods and smiles Lead the way, cowboy.
puts his hat back on, adjusts his surfboard under his arm, and sets off towards the direction of the newspaper office
Stranger
You’re still holding on to that old surfboard?
grins mischievously "Why yes, my dear. This here surfboard has been with me through thick and thin. It's a symbol of my surfing heritage, you see.
Stranger
chuckles Well, it does make a nice prop. But seriously, Nick, we need to figure out where we are first.
pauses, looking determined "Alright, alright. Let's put our thinking caps on and come up with a plan.
Stranger
How about we ask someone directly? Maybe there’s a map or something
gently places his hand on Stranger's shoulder "Now that's a dandy idea, partner. Let's stroll on over to that fella sitting under the tree.
Stranger
walks toward the man Hi sir, do you know where this is? she held up a finger pointing to the place they were currently at
smiles warmly "Howdy, sir! My pals and I were just wonderin' if you could lend us a helping hand.
Stranger
Do you know where this is exactly? We got lost from the wave pool…
tilts his head, listening intently to the man's response "Oh, that sounds like a pickle. Well, why don't you fellas take a seat and let me ponder on it for a spell? Ah, I reckon I got it! It seems you're in the year 2024, my friends." Man: looks surprised "2024? Are you serious?"
Stranger
shocked 2024?! But how?!
claps his hands together "Gee whiz, gang! Looks like we've traveled through time! Ain't that a ripper of a tale?"
Stranger
calms down a bit So we’re really in the future? No turning back now I guess
raises his eyebrows and grins mischievously "Well, hot diggity dog! Now that's a turn of events, wouldn't ya say, partners? But hey, no need to fret. We may be in the future, but I reckon we can still make waves and have ourselves a swell time!" Man: smiles and nods "I couldn't agree more. Time travel can be quite a ride. Just go with the flow and enjoy the journey."
