Buds Best Years, Page 48

Everyone woke up at 6:30am ready for the final day on computer city island. They had breakfast and where ready to go by 7:30am. They were going the beach for this last day on the island.

The beach they were going to was called The Rock star beach. It was named that because it was a favorite vacation destination for rock stars. But, there were no stars here on this day much to Buds disappointment. "I wish there were some stars here today dad so I could get an autograph or 2." Bud said. "Maybe some will show up later" Sid said. The beach had white sand with clear blue water. It was like the picture of the perfect beach. The waves were big enough to surf on. There would be no surfing today as Bud and Sid did not want to rent surfboards.

Sid brought hot dogs, buns, potato salad and chocolate cake for desert. Sid pick up all that food at a deli on the way to the beach so the longIntegers could have a picnic on the beach. And it was such a great day for a picnic. Sunny without a cloud in the sky. Sid also bought a barbecue so that he could cook the hot dogs at the beach because the beach allowed you to cook on the beach.

Sid started the charcoal as soon as he got on the beach so the hot dogs would be read for lunch as it took 2 hours to get then ready. Bud watched his dad light the barbecue. He was so excited to eat grilled food and be at the beach. Bud decided to run to the shore and let the water run over his bare feet. He watched the waves as they were usually big today and wished he had a surfboard. He walked up and down the shoreline looking for surfers and celebrities.

Shortly before lunch he saw one. Bobby Riggs. Bobby was and action movie star with such credits as The mountain climber, Don't look at me dear, Staycation, There is something rotten in computer city, and his best know role as Allan in Allan's weekend in the city.

Allan's weekend in the city was about a young country man on his first weekend in the city. On Allan's first day in the city he is almost mugged but, escapes by using karate to fight off his attackers. Undeterred he looks at a sign for a movie theatre and decides to see what a movie is. He becomes so enraptured with movies that he spends all day at the movie theatre. He was glad to off the mean streets in the big city and safe in the movie theatre. He wished he had discovered movies years before as he believes that they are great entertainment. "you can go on a great adventure and not have to leave you seat or break a sweat" Allan said the cashier at the movie theatre.
