Once they collected everything they (9) can find, they started again for the resort. When they finally arrived, the driver charged them for the time spent collecting the things on the road. Irate, Danny made sure not to tip him. Exhausted, Danny and Carla checked into their room.

When they got to the room, they noticed they did not have a beachfront view as they (10) had been promised. They were also in a smoking room even though they had requested a non-smoking room. Danny asked to switch rooms, but the concierge (11) apollageticaly replied that they were booked for the rest of the week. (12) "Its a popular week for tourists, sir," she replied. Nothing (13) could be done.

Danny, (14) that was trying to stay positive, told Carla not to worry. As long as they kept the windows open, the smell of cigarettes would not be (15) to much of a bother. The next day, they (16) waked up early to fish and then go to the beach. They walked (17) at the beach and found a small table, two chairs, and a large umbrella. Then, they rented a boat to fish. Carla caught only one fish, but Danny (18) catched several fishes. When they got back, they took a nap on the beach. They finally felt peaceful.

A few minutes later, a large family with six kids took a space right next to them. The kids were loud. Some of the kids were arguing, while some ran around squealing in delight. Danny and Carla were unable to sleep, so Danny suggested they (19) went for a walk together. Not paying attention to where they were walking, Carla suddenly jumped up and screamed in agony. She had stepped on a jellyfish and (20) had got stung. She was in pain and couldn't walk, so Danny (21) had carried her all the way back to the room.

Back (22) into the room, Danny (23) realizing they had left their things at the beach. Just as he was about to get them, it started to (24) poor. Danny hoped the umbrella would keep their things dry, but the wind (25) was knocked the umbrella over and everything (26) were soaked. Their books, phones, and wallet (27) was ruinned. To make matters worse, the rain didn't stop.

Two days (28) went by. They had to stay in their smelly room, Carla was still in pain, and Danny was in a bad mood. Needless to say, they (29) gone home early. They thought they might be able to get their money back from the travel agent, but that was also (30) unsuccessfull.
