Lauras Mom: Laura, honey, please sit still.
Laura: Oh, sorry Mom. I just cant help it! It was so much fun at the hotel and now we are going home. On the one hand, Im sad to leave; but on the other, I cant wait to see Hamtaro.
Lauras Dad: Your mothers right Laura, calm down.
Laura: Im sure he had a nice quiet day at home, but he must be lonely without seeing anyone for so long.
~ At the Campsite ~
**Girls creep with buckets full of water from the brook.**

Caiti: It doesnt make much of a difference
Howdy: I wanna know too.
Bijou: Oh please tell us Caiti!
Caiti: Well, If you want to know about it THAT badly, their names are Carrie, Destiny, and Patricia.
Hamtaro: Who was that other ham?
Caiti: You are just too curios for your own good. **smiles** That was my boyfriend, we took the picture on our first campout. We all got lost in the woods and couldnt find our way back until we ran into him. He helped us get out and we had been friends ever since.
Dexter: Can I see the picture?
Caiti: I left it at the campsite in my sleeping pouch.
Cappy: Was it fun living there?
