Speaker 1: today's adventure? Me Too. Let's go. Hazel and Spencer. We're

12
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 1: both getting ready to go to the beach. They loved

13
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: going to the beach. Do you like going to the beach?

14
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 1: Me Too. We are actually going to the beach this

15
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: weekend my family. We are so excited. There's so many

16
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: cool things to do at the beach, like dig dig

17
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 1: giant holes and build castles, and we like to build

18
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: a city and build the roads and build houses and uh,

19
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 1: there's usually a giant hole. I don't know why the

20
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: hole is in that city, but there's always got to

21
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: be a hole right. Well, Hazel and Spencer they love

22
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: going to the beach and they love bringing all their

23
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: beach toys. And what do you need at a beach?

24
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: M Hm, should probably bring like some towels or like

25
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 1: a beach blanket to lay on. Uh, definitely some beach

26
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 1: toys like shovels and rakes and buckets, and maybe a

27
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 1: net to try and catch some minnows. Yeah, those are

28
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: all really great things to bring to the beach and

29
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: they had gotten all of them. Spencer, did you grab

30
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: the all the buckets? I have some shovels. Yep, I

31
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 1: got it right here, said Spencer. Hazel ran upstairs to

32
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: get some towels, and they needed their beach wagon so

33
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: that they didn't have to carry it all in their hands. Yeah,

34
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 1: beach wagon is another good thing to have at the beach.

35
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: So they put it all in the wagon and off

36
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,239
Speaker 1: they walked to the beach. They didn't live that far

37
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: from the beach, which is super cool. I wish that

38
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 1: I could walk to a beach. But they were on

39
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 1: their way. Oh, it's such a beautiful day, said Hazel.

40
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: She looked at her sister. They were both very excited

41
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: to get to work. All right, so here's the plane.

42
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: We're going to build the city and then, Um, could

43
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: you build the houses out, build the roads, and then

44
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: we'll need, you know, hospital and a vet cl neck

45
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: and all the important things of the city, right, said Hazel. Absolutely, Um.

46
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 1: And who's gonna dig the hole, said Spencer. Well, how

47
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 1: about we both digged the hole and the hole can

48
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: go all the way around the city and we can

49
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: fill it with water and it will be perfect. Hazel

50
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: and Spencer were so excited. They finally got to the

51
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 1: beach and laid out their towels and their beach blanket

52
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: and got to work. They had a lot of work

53
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: to do to build this ginormous city. Hey, Hazel, I'm

54
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: gonna go run over and grab some of those sticks

55
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: that had washed up on shore. I think that'll be

56
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: a good addition to our city. Spencer ran over and

57
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: picked out some really beautiful driftwood. And Oh, there's some

58
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: cool shells. That'll be great. Maybe that could be the

59
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: roof for the houses. Spencer filled their pockets and even

60
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: a bucket with some shells and grabbed onto a piece

61
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: of drift too and carry it in her left hand,

62
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: dragging it behind her. As she got back, she looked

63
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: up at Hazel and said Hey, Hazel, where'd all the

64
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 1: buckets go? I don't see them anywhere. Hazel looked around.

65
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: She was distracted because she was building some of the

66
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: buildings on the other side. I don't know. Did a

67
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 1: wave come up and they looked all around and it

68
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 1: was weird. All the buckets had just vanished. What how

69
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: are we going to build this? Wait, we gotta find it.

70
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: Hazel and Spencer both ran up and down the shore,

71
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 1: but there were no buckets. It's not like a big

72
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 1: wave came and picked him up and washed them away,

73
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,919
Speaker 1: because they would have found them. But it was all

74
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: gone by the time they get bought got back, Hazel realized,

75
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: and now our shovels are gone. Everything had vanished, all

76
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: the toys that they had brought. Wait a second, there's

77
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,239
Speaker 1: got to be a thief on this beach. He didn't

78
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 1: just vanish or washed away in a wave. Someone must

79
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: have stolen them. Maybe it's the seagulls go there were

80
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: a lot of seagulls flying around, but I don't think

81
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,919
Speaker 1: they're strong enough to pick up a bucket. M Hm.

82
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: Spencer looked down shore and there was a whole bunch

83
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: of little crabs you don't think the crabs would have

84
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: done that, do you? No, but wait a second, said Hazel.

85
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 1: She looked down in the sand by where their stuff

86
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 1: had been, and there were footprints, footprints that definitely should

87
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 1: not be there. They were not people footprints, they were

88
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: some kind of animal. Look at this, Spencer. They both

89
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 1: jumped on their hands and knees and carefully inspected each footprint.

90
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 1: Look at that. No, most looks like a ginormous cat like.

91
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 1: I can see the paths of the feet and that

92
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: is so weird. Why would a giant like look at

93
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,839
Speaker 1: the it's as big as it's bigger than my hand. WHOA?

94
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 1: The two girls did not know what to think or do.

95
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: They looked around and those footprints went right to the ocean.

96
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: That is so weird, said Hazel. Wait, oh my goodness,

97
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: look at that. On the shore they could see a

98
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: shark fin swimming back and forth in the water. Oh,

99
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 1: I'm glad we're not swimming today, because that would have

100
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 1: been dangerous. Look at that. It was a shark that

101
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: they've never seen before. It it had spots like a Cheetah.

102
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 1: And wait a second, that thing has legs. Holy Smokes,

103
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: said Spencer. It's like half shark, half Cheetah. You don't

104
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 1: think that's the thing that stole all our toys, do you? Well,

105
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: said Hazel. She thought very carefully. I think it might

106
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: actually be, because those footprints looked like they match that

107
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: creature and that's the only thing that could have come

108
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: up here. Let's go see if we can ask him.

109
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: Hazel and Spencer walked down to the edge of the water,

110
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: not to get in the water because it's not safe

111
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: to go in the water where a shark is, but

112
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: they called out to the shark. Hello, uh, Shark Cheetah,

113
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: what do you are you out there? Spencer was the

114
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: brave one to shout it out, and then the Shark

115
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: Cheetah picked his head out of the water. Yeah, what

116
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: do you want? Well, Um, did you happen to see

117
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: the bucket and shovels that we were playing with? No, one,

118
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know what you're talking about. Um, okay,

119
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 1: said Hazel, but we saw your footprints right by where

120
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: our stuff was and now it's missing. Okay, yes, I

121
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: was up there and okay, fine, you can have your

122
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: stuff back. Just leave me alone. Wait, what's going on?

123
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: What's wrong? Well, you see, no one ever wants to

124
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: play with me, and so when I saw you having

125
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 1: all that fun, I just couldn't stand it. So I

126
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: had to figure out a way to end all that fun.

127
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, that's so sad that no one wants

128
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: to play with you. Will you can play with us,

129
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 1: said Spencer. Really, I've never had a friend before, and

130
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: that is the day that the Shark Cheetah became friends

131
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: with Hazel and Spencer. It's kind of interesting how that works, right,

132
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: if someone doesn't have a lot of friends, sometimes it

133
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,559
Speaker 1: makes them sad or mad. When they see other people

134
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: having fun. They want to ruin that fun because they're like,

135
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 1: if I can't have fun, that no one can. Well,

136
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: just like that Shark Cheetah, Hazel and Spencer were really

137
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: nice and made an easy, really quick friend. And then

138
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: that Shark Cheetah brought back all the toys and the

139
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:33,559
Speaker 1: three of them played together. Wow, and I'm sure that

140
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 1: their sand city was even more awesome, having a Shark

141
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 1: Cheetah on your team. Well, great job, Hazel and Spencer.

142
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 1: You made a new friend and I hope that I

143
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,439
Speaker 1: do too at the beach this weekend. Well, I will

144
00:09:50,440 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: see you next time. Friends, by great job. You listened

145
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: all the way to the end and you know what

146
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: time it is. It's time for kid shout out. I

147
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: want to say hey to Theodore Instella from Massachusetts, Oliver
