A beach and shore a little ways away from the survivor's camps. Location found in box G4 below: Each box is 3 miles by 3 miles. It takes an hour to walk 3 miles. But also keep in mind that hiking (like that really steep hill to get to higher ground) will take a heck of a lot longer and that if you're running (like from some jungle thing), that you'll get somewhere faster.

"G"
G sat by the sea, watching the waves hit the shore. In reality he was planing. He was starting to realize how stacked the deck was against him. Americans found him funny--but how would a Brit.... and one as serious as her no less... react? I mean, the French find Jerry Lewis delightful. He shook his head and realized the truth: He was thinking to hard.

"So you're not going on the hike, either?" she inquired, walking over to him and standing so that she blocked the sunlight.

TALIYA
Taliya glanced over at the man and woman as she went down to the ocean. She sat down, slipped off her sneakers and socks, and stepped into the ocean. It felt like bliss to her to be in her favorite place in the world again. She missed her surfboard and longed for when she could once again conquer the waves. Slowly, Taliya waded in further and further, until it was to the hem of her shorts.

"G"
He looked up and smiled. Hot water girl. Damn. No one to fist-bump. He needed to find a new fist-bump partner, ASAP. But there were bigger concerns right now. Like... legs.
"I'm not," he said, with a half smile, as he stood up slowly, brushing the sand off his pants. "I prefer strolls in the beach to hikes in the woods." He looked out to the ocean, back at her, then out at the ocean again. "Better view."

"I prefer strolls in the beach to hikes in the woods. Better view."
"And fewer things trying to kill you," she commented, tucking her hair behind her ear and smiling. "So is it anything like the view in Madagascar? When you spent three days in a baobab tree trying to get a picture of some monkey?" she asked, recalling some adventurous story he'd told her the night before.

"G"
It's actually a lot closer to the Amazon," he said, with a smile. "I mean, monkeys are dangerous... the have opposable thumbs, they can walk on two legs, they throw poop.... but, the Amazon, it feels like you could die at any moment. There are one million, two hundred and eight thousand three hundred and fifty six different species in the Amazon and many of them can kill you."
He took a bite from a mango and smiled as after he swallowed.
"You never know what you're going to see next," he said, looking around. He picked up another mango from a pile on the ground. "Sometimes it's something mundane that you've seen before and you have to make it look special." He handed her the mango. "But occasionally you see something unique and amazing and beautiful."
His pitch perfect speech was accented with a smile that never glanced down and a few brief pauses.... all for effect.

SHANNON
She grinned as she accepted the mango from him. As well as the flattering adjectives that seemed to be directed at her. If Boone was gonna' spend the rest of his time here sulking, she might as well find someone else to talk to. Someone who seemed willing to help her with the whole food situation.
"So how many species are there in Australia? You were there for work, right?" she asked, biting into the fruit.

"I don't know for sure," he said. "They have kangeroos, and dingos... so that's two... The bunyip, that's very rare." he said with a smile. "They have such weird names for things. Did you get to see a bunyip while you were there?"

"I don't think so," she said, though her attention hadn't really been on the local flora and fauna. "What is a bunyip?"

"It's a horrible looking creature," he said. "With big teeth... it's very rare. It's endangered, and so they're very protective of it, I guess." He paused and looked at her, with a half grin. "So, why were you 'down under'."

"Um, there was...a guy," she replied hesitantly. The more she'd had time to think about her reasons for being in Australia, the more foolish they seemed. And having Boone around everyday to remind her of her mistake wasn't exactly helping. "Things didn't exactly work out," she shrugged. "So my half brother was bringing me back to California."

"And now your trapped on an island with him," he said, with a nod. "I don't think I could spend five minutes on an island with my sister."

"Yeah, but he's got so many more people to 'save' now. Even when his good deeds backfire like they did yesterday, he still thinks he knows what's best for everyone," she grumbled. "Which keeps him away from me most of the time."

"So, when you're not trapped on an island no one seems to know about, what do you do, you know, for fun?"

"Awesome," he said, finishing off his mango. "Mangos taste much better in smoothee form."

She laughed at his quick shift in thinking. "Do you ever spend more than five seconds on a topic?" she asked.

"Yes... sometimes... on occasion," he said. He smirked and shrugged. "I mean I can..." he said with a smile.
