The sun was shining brightly as Noah Risling and Eliana Kalogeras walked toward the towering cruise ship, her twin sisters, Demitra and Sunday, trailing close behind.

As they stepped onto the ship, Noah felt a surge of anticipation—it was going to be a trip to remember.

As soon as they stepped onto the cruise ship, Noah couldn’t help but take in the sheer size of it—the grand lobby stretched upward, glittering with chandeliers and polished railings. Eliana Kalogeras tugged at your arm, her eyes sparkling as she exclaimed, “Noah, look at that view!” She pointed toward the massive windows showcasing the endless expanse of ocean ahead. Behind them, Demitra and Sunday had already started exploring, marveling at the winding staircases and the bustling activity around them.

“This place is like a floating city,” Noah/you said, laughing as Eliana grabbed his hand and pulled him toward the nearest deck. The warm breeze hit their faces as they stepped outside, the sound of waves crashing against the ship’s hull mixing with the music playing in the distance. Demitra and Sunday appeared moments later, carrying brochures about onboard activities.

“First stop—pool deck!” Sunday declared, holding up her map like a treasure hunter.
