After ironing out some ground rules with the boys - mainly the idea of not going off too far or into the jungle areas beyond the beach - Erik let the two head out and get their bearings. Naturally, they gleefully took it upon themselves to explore every bit of the beach. Meanwhile, the ship's captain came in to discuss some minor details. As soon as that was done, Erik and Doreen were both out under the open sky.
As they were slowly walking along the water's waves, Erik mused "It's quite a lovely place here. There are about six islands close together. After the plant issue gets solved, they plan making a residential area here, as it's close enough to the mainland for quick shuttle travel."
