John was happy and ready to go. He grabbed his camera, hopped in the car, and his dad drove away. The sun was shining and the wind was blowing their hair. They drove for a long time until they reached the ocean. John was so excited to take pictures of the waves crashing against the shore. 
But then his dad stopped the car. He said, "We can go take pictures of the ocean later. Now, I'm going to take you to get something to eat. I'm hungry and I know you must be too!" 
John smiled and nodded. He was never one to turn down food, especially when he was hungry.
They drove a few more minutes, until they arrived at John's favorite restaurant. The smell of food was everywhere and John's mouth started to water. He skipped to the door and said, "I'm so excited. I can't wait to eat!" His dad laughed and opened the door for him. 
John knew that this was not a regular restaurant visit. He was excited to see what was in store for him. As John ate, he remembered his dad's words from earlier and realized why he wanted to drive to the restaurant first. 
John enjoyed his meal, and then they drove back to the ocean. He took pictures of the waves while his dad laughed and watched him. The day had been perfect and full of surprises!
