User blog:TMNT1987Dude/Fanfiction - Louds Down Under

Well, it's finally here. My long anticipated Louds Down Under is finally here. Here is my 44th fan fiction, and I hope you enjoy. Special thanks to AndrewBrauer, and AnimationFan15 for some story assistance, and to YoshiRocker13 for being a consultant on this story.

It was a beautiful day in Royal Woods, and Lincoln and his sisters were ready for summer. Lincoln was in the kitchen participating in a radio contest, as the DJ asked him the final question. “Alright Lincoln Loud, if you answer this last question correctly, then you win the big prize.”



-”I'm ready!” said Lincoln, as he was completely hyped to win the contest.



-”Okay then!” said the DJ. “What is the name of the now extinct, Australian predator, that was the largest known predatory marsupial?”



-”The Tasmanian tiger!” answered Lincoln.



-”You are correct,” said the DJ. “Congratulation Lincoln Loud, you have now an all expense paid trip to Australia, for you and five other people. You're tickets will arrive at your house, later today.”



-”Only six tickets?” said Lincoln to himself, as he had a look of dread. “I can only bring five of my sisters, and what will I do if the ones I don't bring along, hate me for it?” said Lincoln, as he looked at the audience in complete dread.



Later that day, Lincoln was waiting anxiously by the door for the tickets, and his sisters were wondering what was going on. “What's going on Linky?” asked Leni.



-”It appears our brother is awaiting for a parcel of some sort to arrive,” said Lisa. “I assume he bought more Ace Savvy memorabilia.”



<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”No, it's not that,” replied Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”What are you waiting for little bro?” asked Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You'll all find out in a moment,” said Lincoln, as he was dreading the outcome of only being able to invite five of them.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They heard the doorbell ring, and Lincoln opened it to reveal a man from the radio station. “Congratulations Lincoln Loud!” said the man. “I hope you enjoy your trip.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Thank you sir,” said Lincoln, as he closed the door.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Trip?” said his sisters in unison.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I won a trip to Australia in a radio contest,” said Lincoln. “I'm sorry to say however, that I only won six tickets, so I can only bring five of you with me. Please don't hate me if I don't bring you along,” said Lincoln, as he ducked, and looked away.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Don't worry Lincoln,” said Lori. “I'm not interested in going to Australia. “I heard it's too hot down there.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'll pass!” said Lola. “Australia doesn't interest me for a vacation.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Same here!” said Lucy. “It's far too sunny down there.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'd love to go, but I have several party gigs already booked,” said Luan. “I have a busy summer on my hands.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”So, that just leaves you six,” said Lincoln, as he looked at his remaining sisters.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Make that five,” said Lynn Sr. “Your mother and I are taking Lily somewhere for the first week of summer.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Sweet!” said Lincoln,a s he spoke to the audience. “I have five sisters, and it wasn't a hassle to decide.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”This is gonna be AWESOME,” said Lana. “There's all kinds of great animals in Australia.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Not to mention there are several fascinating locations, and I too wish to observe the foreign flora and fauna,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I heard they have Rugby down there, and I've always wanted to play that,” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Not to mention it will be a great vacation that we'll spend with our bro,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I look forward to spending some quality time with you guys,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Awesome!” said Lincoln. “We leave in two days, and everything is all set up.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The first day of their vacation had arrived, and Lincoln was preparing the last of what he was packing for the trip. “I've got my sunscreen, swim trunks, shades, and I believe that concludes everything I need for the trip,” said Lincoln, as he came out of his room wearing an orange sleeveless t shirt, white shorts, and his regular shoes.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Looking good Linky!” said Leni, who was in a sea foam green sun dress, a white sun hat, and her sandals.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You look lovely Leni,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Thank you Linky,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Let's get going dudes,” said Luna, as she came out of her room in a purple tank top, with a skull on it, light purple shorts, and purple sandals.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'm ready!” said Lana, who was wearing her regular murky green shirt, and red baseball cap, but instead of her overalls, she was wearing blue shorts.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Let's get going,” said Lynn, who was wearing a red short sleeved shirt, white shorts, and red and white shoes.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I am also prepared for our trip,” said Lisa, as the others were surprised to see her wearing a white t shirt, with a khaki vest, that had several pockets, khaki cargo shorts, boots, and a safari hat.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”We're not going on a jungle safari Lisa,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Outfits such as this are appropriate attire for venturing into a climate such as Australia's,” said Lisa. “Now, is our shuttle bus almost here?”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”It should be arriving any moment,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”It's literally too bad that Mom, Dad, and Lily aren't here to say goodbye to you guys,” said Lori.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”They already said their goodbyes yesterday, and they called this morning to wish us a safe trip,” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”It's going to be lonely without you guys,” said Luan.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yes it will,” said Lola.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I wish you all the safest trip possible,” said Lucy.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Thanks you guys,” said Lincoln, as the shuttle bus arrived at the Loud House, and they left to board it. “Bye guys!” said Lincoln, as he, Leni, Luna, Lynn, Lana, and Lisa waved goodbye, as Lori, Luan, Lucy, and Lola waved goodbye back.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The shuttle bus took off, and they were on their way to the airport. “This vacation is gonna be sweet,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You said it,” said Lynn. “I'm totally gonna be awesome at Rugby.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Isn't Rugby really tough?” asked Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Did you forget who you're talking to?” said Lynn. “I can master any sport.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They arrived at the airport, and boarded their plane, which was getting ready to take off. Lincoln was sitting in between Leni and Luna, while Lynn, Lana, and Lisa sat in the row behind them. “Welcome on board!” said the stewardess, as she was about to make the announcements. “Our nonstop flight to Australia will begin momentarily,” said the stewardess, as she made the safety announcements.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”It's cool how these flights have a selection of in-flight movies, so you can choose what you want to watch,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You said it little bro,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”We hope you enjoy your flight, and we will proceed to take off,” said the stewardess, as she finished the announcements. The plane got started, and took off, as the Loud siblings were on their way to Australia.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”So, let's see what they have in their selection, said Lincoln, as he looked over what they had for movies.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'll just use my phone,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Wait, you can't charge your phone in another country, right?” asked Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”With this adapter device I created, we can charge our phones anywhere,” said Lisa, as she showed the device.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Sweet!” said Luna, as she took out her phone.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">As the Loud siblings flight progressed, they found different ways to keep themselves entertained, and they had each gotten their meals. “Man, this airline food is pretty lousy,” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Food is food,” said Lana, as she happily ate her meal.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Excuse me!” said Lincoln, as he signaled a stewardess.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”What can I get for you young man?” asked the stewardess.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”May I please have another orange soda?” asked Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Of course!” said the stewardess, as she handed it to him.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Okay, I'm bored with my phone, so let's see what kind of movies they in the in-flight entertainment,” said Luna, as she browsed the selections.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Hey Linky, want to play that one guessing game on my phone?” asked Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Sure!” said Lincoln. “Good timing, since my movie just ended.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Good thing I brought these,” said Lynn, as she brought some tennis balls, a baseball, and a football. She started tossing the tennis ball around, it accidentally went into another direction, and landed on another passengers tray table.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Hey!” shouted the passenger, as his food got splattered on his face.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You didn't see anything,” said Lynn, as she ducked down.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Careful Lynn,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yeah, we don't want you to get us in trouble,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yeah, yeah!” said Lynn, as she grabbed her baseball, and started throwing it up into the air. Once again, her ball accidentally went another direction, and hit another passenger on his head.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Who did that?” said the passenger, as he angrily looked around.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Just then, a stewardess came up to the Loud siblings, and approached Lynn. “Hand them over.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Here you go,” said Lynn, as she handed her a tennis ball.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”All of them,” said the stewardess.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Fine!” said Lynn, as she reluctantly handed everything she had over to the stewardess.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You may have them back when we land,” said the stewardess. “Now please, no more commotion.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yes ma'am!” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Behave yourselves!” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Got it!” said the others.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Man, this is getting boring,” said Lana. “I got bored with my phone, and I don't have any of my pets with me.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Try watching a movie, or listening to music,” suggested Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Okay!” said Lana, as she browsed her movie options. “Oh hey, they have Pixar films on here. Sweet! I wonder if they have A Bug's Life.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Hopefully that will keep her entertained for a lengthy period of time,” said Lisa, as she went back to reading her book.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Lincoln and Leni continued to play the guessing game on Leni's phone, Luna and Lana watched movies, and Lynn fell asleep, as they continued on with their flight. “Hopefully nothing else will go wrong before we land,” said Lincoln, as he spoke to the audience.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Sometime later, the plane was approaching their destination, and the Loud siblings were glad that they had finally arrived in Australia. “We've finally arrived at our destination,” said the stewardess, as the plane landed, and the crowd began clapping, and Lana covered her ears.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-“We're finally here,” said Lincoln, as they all prepared to exit the plane.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Here you go,” said the stewardess, as she handed Lynn her tennis balls, baseball, and football back. “Be warned, that if you cause trouble on the flight back, I'll keep them,” said the stewardess, in a stern tone.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'll try to be more careful ma'am,” said Lynn, as they all exited the plane.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They went to grab their luggage, and the sisters were wondering what they were supposed to do now. “We're staying at this one hotel, so do we take a bus or something?” asked Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”We're supposed to have a tour guide, who's supposed to pick us up, and take to visit the sights while we're here, but I don't know who he is,” replied Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I believe he's over there,” said Lisa, as she pointed over to a man, with a sign that read “Louds” on it.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Hello sir!” said Lincoln. “I'm Lincoln Loud, and these are my sisters.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”A pleasure to meet you Lincoln, said the man, as he shook his hand. “I'm Trent, and I'll be your guide for you Australian vacation. Now, then, let me drive you, and your sisters over to the hotel,” said Trent, as they all got into his vehicle, and went over to the hotel. “You mates are going to love your stay. The hotel you'll be staying at has multiple pools, a spa, a karaoke bar, and much more.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”A karaoke bar?” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”They have a spa?” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”That's right,” said Trent, “and that's just the beginning. We have a many sights to see, and there's also going to be some wildlife tours, and we're even going to visit the Great Barrier Reef.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”May we visit the Opera House in Sydney?” asked Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Of course!” replied Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They continued on the ride for a while, and in the meantime, the siblings looked around, and observed their surroundings, as some of them took pictures with their smartphones. “What should we do first?” asked Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Well, for the rest of today, I believe you should settle in, and relax,” said Trent. “You can just explore the hotel, go to the spa, the pool, and starting tomorrow we'll go over what we can do during your vacation. We've got several things planned, so I think it's best to relax, and get some rest in the meantime.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I think I'll just head to the pool,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'll check out the karaoke bar,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'll just relax in our hotel room,” said Lisa. “I believe that resting up, before we venture into our Australian vacation is a wise decision.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”We're here!” said Trent, as they pulled into the hotel, and the Loud siblings were amazed by how grand it looks.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”We're going to be staying here?” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”That's right!” said Trent. “Now, let us take your bags, and bring them up to your suite.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They went into the lobby, and Trent went up to the front desk to have the Loud siblings checked in. “Aw, so you must be the contest winners,” said the man at the front desk.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”That's correct!” said Trent. “These six lucky Americans are in for quite a vacation.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You'll be staying in one of our deluxe suites, and the entire room is ready for you,” said the man, as he handed each of the Loud siblings their own keys.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Thank you!” said the Loud siblings, as they all went up to their room.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They arrived at their room, and as soon as they opened the door, they were all in awe, as they saw how big, and how nice their suite looked. “This is gonna be quite a vacation,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Thanks to you little bro,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Three cheers for Lincoln, for getting us this awesome vacation,” said Lana, as Luna, Leni, and Lynn picked up Lincoln, and started tossing him up.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Thanks you guys,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They put Lincoln down, and looked around their room. “This is so amazing,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”We should check out the bedrooms,” said Lynn, as they all went to look at the bedrooms. “Sweet! We have three large bedrooms.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'll be roommates with Lynn,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'm bunking with Leni,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Well Lisa, it that leaves you with me,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I intended to be your roommate Lincoln,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Well, lets get our stuff, and settle into our large suite,” said Lincoln, as the siblings put their belongings into their bedrooms, and then all of them just sat down for a while on the couch in the front of their room.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Luna got her guitar, as she prepared to head to the karaoke bar. “Later dudes!” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Give them a great show,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'm gonna go out and explore,” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Later!” said Lincoln, as Lynn walked out the door. “I better get into my swim trunks, and head to the pool.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'm coming with you Linky,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'd really appreciate the company,” said Lincoln, as they both to change into their bathing suits. “Later you two,” said Lincoln, as he and Leni left the room.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Later!” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”So, what do you wish to do?” asked Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I think I'll head down to the all you can buffet they have here,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Just don't get yourself kicked out,” said Lisa, as Lana walked out the door. “Now for some peace and solitude,” said Lisa, as she spoke to the audience.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Luna arrived at the karaoke bar, and signed up to perform onstage. “You're number 6,” said the manager of the bar.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Got it mate!” said Luna, as she sat down, and waited her turn to perform. She waited as the first few people in front of her performed, until it was her turn, and she went up to the stage.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Now, let us introduce someone from the States, Ms. Luna Loud,” said the manager, as the drown applauded.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Hello Australia!” yelled Luna into the microphone. “Are you ready to rock?” The crown applauded, as she got out her guitar, and started to rip.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Elsewhere, Lynn was walking around, as she noticed a group of kids playing Rugby, and went to join them. “Can I join?” asked Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You want to play Rugby?” asked one of the boys.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You bet!” said Lynn. “I'm all about sports, and I welcome any challenge.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I see you're an American, but let me warn you, Rugby's a lot tougher than many of your American sports,” said the boy.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Bring it on!” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Very well then,” said the boy. “We've got a new player for our game... uh, what's your name?”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Lynn Loud!” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Welcome to the game Lynn,” said another boy, as she joined the game.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Meanwhile, Lincoln and Leni were searching through the hotel brochure to see which pool sounded good to them, and Lincoln chose one that had water slides. “This one looks cool,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Got it!” said Leni, as they headed over to the pool, and Leni sat down in a chair, while Lincoln did a cannonball into the pool.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”This pool is really cool,” said Lincoln, as he swam around, and then went to check out the water slides.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Meanwhile, Lana was at the all you can eat buffet, and had stuffed a plate full of so much food. “This is gonna be such an awesome meal,” said Lana, as she stared at her plate.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Quite a lot there, for such a small child,” said a man.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”And I can't wait to eat it,” said Lana, as she began to scarf down her food, as the people around her began to look at her strangely.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Back at the beach, Lynn was enjoying playing rugby, and the boys were impressed with her skills. “Quite impressive Lynn,” said the first boy, as Lynn was running with the ball, and he came behind her, and grabbed her from behind the head.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Hands off the ears,” said Lynn, as she got out of his grip, and continued running with the ball, and scored another point.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You're really good,” said the second boy. “For someone who's never played this game, you adapt very well.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”There's no sport I'm not good at,” said Lynn. “Should we go another round?”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”One more, because I have to get home soon,” said the first boy.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Let the game begin,” said Lynn, as they continued to play more rugby.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">At the karaoke bar, Luna's loud guitar playing was starting to irritate some of the crowd, and as soon as she started ramming her guitar, they started getting really annoyed. She accidentally caused some damage to the stage, and her guitar slipped from her hands, and it went flying, and landed against the bar, as it wrecked a pitcher of soda, and it got both a waiter, and a customer all wet. “Sorry mates!” said Luna, as the crowd was glaring at her, and the manager came up to her.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Offstage!” said the manager.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'm sorry about this,” said Luna. “I didn't mean it.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Please!” said the manager. “Just leave!”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yes sir!” said Luna, as she picked up her guitar, and left the karaoke bar embarrassed.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Back at the all you can eat buffet, everyone was getting disgusted with Lana eating her food with her hands, and how messy her table was. This is really good,” said Lana, as she continued to stuff herself, and she was getting all messy.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I think you've had enough,” said one of the waiters, as she looked at up at him.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”But I'm not finished yet,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Please, just go young lady,” said the waiter. “You're grossing out the other customers.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I understand!” said Lana, as she left.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Lincoln was at the pool enjoying himself, as he and Leni both went down a water slide together. “That was fun,” said Leni, as they both reached the pool.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You know it,” said Lincoln. I think it's getting close to dinnertime, so maybe we should get back to our room, and get ready.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Okay Linky!” said Leni, as they went back to their suite, and Luna and Lana were already.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Where's Lynn?' asked Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”She hasn't come back yet,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”The pools here are awesome,” said Lincoln. “They even have water slides.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Awesome little bro,” said Luna. “We should really check them out.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yeah, we should,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Well, I'm going to take a shower,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Me too!” said Leni, as they both went to get ready for dinner.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">As the two of them were showering, Lynn came back, and was really energetic. “Rugby is so sweet,” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You were playing rugby?” asked Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I hear that sport can be quite barbaric,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”There's no sport that's too rough for Lynn Loud,” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Later, the Loud siblings were all ready, and they were looking to see where they could have dinner. “I'm sure there's some great places to eat around here,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Let's just here tonight,” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”We can try the all you can eat buffet they have here,” said Luna, as Lana started to get nervous.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They headed down to the all you can eat buffet, but the hostess saw Lana, and stopped them. “What's wrong ma'am?” asked Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I believe everyone around here has had enough of her gross eating habits,” said the hostess, as she pointed to Lana, as she began to laugh nervously.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Let's see if there's another place around here where we can eat,” said Lincoln, as they went to the poolside cafe to have dinner.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”So, did anyone else make a bad first impression?” asked Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I made a scene at the karaoke bar,” said Luna. “Sorry bro!” said Luna, as she faced Lincoln. “You won us this awesome vacation, and already I did something that could get us in trouble.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Not to worry Luna,” said Lincoln. “You just got overexcited doing what you love. It happens to all of us.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Thanks for understanding little bro,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”And I'll try top control myself too,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Let's just enjoy our vacation together you guys,” said Lincoln, as they had their dinner.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Later that evening, they headed back to their suite, and each of the siblings went to their respective rooms. “Goodnight!” said the siblings, as they all went into their bedroom.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Lincoln was laying on his bed, while Lisa was on her bed, looking over the activities that they would be embarking on during their vacation. “I see that tomorrow we will be visiting the Great Barrier Reef,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”That should be awesome,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Not only will it be a beautiful site to see, but also something to learn about as well,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I look forward to what adventures we'll encounter, while we're here,” said Lincoln, as he turned off the light, and they went to sleep.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The next morning, the siblings all awoke, and got ready for their first big Australian venture. “I can't wait to see the Great Barrier Reef,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”We'll get to see so many beautiful sea plants, and fish,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”So, Trent is going to meet up us, and take us there, right?” asked Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yes!” said Lincoln. “Trent's our personal tour guide, so he's going to bring us to all of the sites.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They heard Leni scream, as they went into one of the bathroom. “What's up?” asked Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”There's something in the bathtub,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Lana went to go check it out, and saw that there was a frog in the bathtub. “It's just a frog,” said Lana. “I'll let you get little guy,” said Lana, as she went to put it outside.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Let's get ready you guys,” said Lincoln. “We don't want to be late.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">About 15 minutes later, they were all dressed, and ready to head out. “Let's go!” said Lana, as they all left their suite, and went to the lobby to look for Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Hello there mates,” said Trent,” as he greeted them.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Good morning Trent!” said the siblings, as they all walked over to him.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I see you're all ready, and come on, and let's head down to the Great Barrier Reef,” said Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yeah!” said the Loud siblings, as they all headed into Trent's vehicle, and they drove down to board the boat.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”After we visit the Great Barrier Reef, we'll board a ferry, and look around the ocean around here,” said Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Sounds awesome!” said Luna, as the siblings were all eager to get to their destination.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Awhile later, they were on a boat, heading to the Great Barrier Reef. They were all in wet suits, and were happy that they were going to go diving. “This is gonna be so awesome,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Hopefully all of us can also learn something from this experience,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Now then,” said Trent, “let us get our scuba gear ready, and dive into the Great Barrier Reef.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They all got on their scuba gear, and dived out of the boat, as they all swam towards the reef. “What a beautiful site,” said Lincoln, as they all observed the natural beauty of the reef.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You said it,” said Leni, as they all looked around.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Now then, feel free to explore around here, but don't stray too far,” said Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They all started to swim around, and Leni observed a clownfish and a blue tang swimming nearby. “Look you guys,” said Leni, as they all came to look at them.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Cool!” said Lincoln, as they observed them.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They continued to explore, as they observed many animals, including striped surgeonfish, seahorses, rays, and sea turtles. “This is so cool,” said Lincoln, as they looked at all the various sea life.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Look at me,” said Lana, as they saw her riding a sea turtle. “You guys gotta try this.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Looks like fun,” said Leni, as they all grabbed onto a sea turtle's shell, and were riding on them.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Just be sure to let go before they head out to far,” said Trent, as they continued to ride on the sea turtles. They let go, as soon as they were swimming away from the reef, and went back to exploring.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Too bad we can't get any pictures of these,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Unless we had an underwater camera, but unfortunately we don't,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'd really love to get some pictures of the reef to bring back home,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Wouldn't we all little bro,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Are you enjoying yourselves?” asked Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yes we are,” said the siblings, as they continued to explore the reef.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Look over there,” said Lana, as she pointed to a group of dolphins swimming along the reef.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”They're so beautiful,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Too bad we can't try riding on one of those,” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”There's a place near the resort where you can go into a pool with dolphins,” said Trent. “We're scheduled to attend later this week.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Cool!” said the siblings, as they went back to exploring the reef.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Some time later, their air tanks were running low, and they had to head back to the boat. “That was really exciting,” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Especially when we got to ride on sea turtles,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Too bad we didn't to do it for very long,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”At least we got to do it at all,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I love the Great Barrier Reef,” said Leni. “It's so colorful and beautiful, and it has so many beautiful creatures.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You said it,” said Lisa, as they all went back on the boat, and Trent was driving them to their next destination.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Now we'll head for the ferry, and enjoy ourselves a little sea cruise,” said Trent. “We'll also get to eat on the ferry.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'm pretty hungry,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Glad we're going to have lunch on the boat,” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They arrived back at the beach, and they all went to change out of their wet suits, and get ready to board the ferry. “Are you all ready?” asked Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yes we are!” said the siblings, as they all headed to the docks, to board the boat.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They boarded the ferry, and immediately went to get something to eat. “That was so awesome,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Man, the others will be pretty upset when they see what they missed,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Their loss!” said Lynn, as they ate their lunch.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Later, they were observing the ocean, and were getting ready, as a humpback whale was going to be seen pretty soon. “Remember, if you want to get a picture, you need to do it as fast as you can,” said Trent, as they all got their phones ready to snap a picture of the whale.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The whale came out of the water, and the siblings all snapped a picture, and each of them managed to get a picture of the whale. “That was so cool,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”How did your pictures come out guys?” asked Lincoln, as they all looked at each others pictures.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Pretty good one Lisa,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I was able to calculate to appropriate time to snap a photo of the sea mammal,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Pretty good shot their Leni,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Thanks Linky!” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They enjoyed the rest of their cruise, and before they knew it, it was almost nighttime, and their first day of fun had come to an end. “What a great day,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You said it,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Tomorrow, we'll be heading down to the Australian wildlife research facility that's close to the resort,” said Trent. “There are many animals there that we wont see on one of our wildlife tours, due to them being too dangerous for you to observe them in the wild.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”As long as we get to see them,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Let's continue to have this much fun you guys,” said Lincoln, as they looked forward to the next day.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The following day, they were at the wildlife research facility, and were being given a tour. “Now let us begin by going to out mammal center, said the man giving the tour. “I'm sure you know that the kangaroo is one of the most well known species native to Australia.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Of course!” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”They look really beautiful,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”We're bound to see these on the many wildlife tours we'll be going on, so let us focus more on what we wont see on one of our wildlife tours,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Now over here, we have one of the most fearsome predators, the Tasmanian devil,” said the tour guide, as he brought them over to it's cage.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Those things aren't that big, are they?” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”They may not be as large as a big cat, or a bear, but they can be quite dangerous,” said the tour guide. “Now over here we have the dingo, which is a quite beautiful, but also quite fearsome member of the canine family.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”They look cool,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Believe me,” said Lisa, “they're not like a domestic dog, so you don't know what you're in for, if you try to approach one of these.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They continued to look around the facility, and observed many animals, including sugar gliders, platypi, salt water crocodiles, goannas, and many types of highly venomous spiders and snakes. “As you may know, we have some of the deadliest spiders, and snakes here in Australia,” said the tour guide. “Here we have the funnel web spider, and the Australian redback spider.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Spiders!” said Leni, as she began to cringe in fear.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You're perfectly safe Leni,” said Lincoln. “They're behind glass, and can't hurt you.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Now here we have some of the deadliest snake species known to man, such as the taipan, and tiger snake,” said the tour guide, as they observed the snakes.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”They look so awesome,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You wont think so if one of them bit you,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They continued with their tour, and got to the part of the facility where they could observe animals up close. “Man, the platypus is the freak misfit of the evolutionary chart,” said Lynn, as one of the workers brought a platypus for them to see.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”It's still cute though,” said Leni, as they all got to hold it. “I wonder if he's a secret agent,” said Leni, as the rest of them laughed.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Cool!” said Lana, as they went to see a python. “Isn't he awesome?” said Lana, as she had the python around her.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yes he is,” said Lincoln, as he also touched the python.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The other sisters also touched the python, as well as a blue tongued skink, and an echidna. “These creatures all fascinating specimens, and it's a shame we don't get to see them back home,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yeah it is,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Such beautiful creatures, and we don't get to see them where we live,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">After a while, they finished their tour of the wildlife research facility, and went around the town, as Trent showed them places they could eat, shop, and go to have fun. “Where would you like to go next?” asked Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”How about we check that store over there,” said Lincoln, as he pointed to a nice looking tourist shop.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Good thinking!” said Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They stopped, and headed into the store. It was a large place, with all kinds of nice Australian souvenirs. “Whoa, they've got everything here,” said Lynn, as she went over to the sports section. “Check out this cool rugby ball.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”They even have musical instruments,” said Luna, as she went to check out the music section. “Sweet!” said Luna, as she picked up a didgeridoo. “I've always wanted to play one of these. She played the didgeriddo, as Lincoln stood there, liking the noise she was giving out.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Do you plan to get one?” asked Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You bet I do little bro,” said Luna, as she put it into her bag.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They looked around the shop, and Lincoln was surprised to see some of the items in the store. “Oh cool. They have those Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figures that are exclusive to Australia, and the UK, and aren't available in the United States.” He put them into his bag, and all of the Loud siblings exited the store, with their purchases.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Now then, let's continue,” said Trent, as they continued to drive around town.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The following day they were on a wildlife tour, and Trent was taking them through an pen area, where the Loud siblings many animals, including kangaroos, wallabies, emus, koalas, and many other animals. “This is so cool, that we get to see some animals out in the wild,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You bet it is,” said Lincoln, as he was snapping some photos with his smartphone.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”This is quite a beautiful area,” said Leni, as she was observing the land around them. “Aww, look at that,” said Leni, as she pointed to a female kangaroo, with it's baby.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”That's a cute Joey,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I didn't know it had a name,” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Actually Leni, Joey is a term for baby kangaroos,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”So all baby kangaroos are named Joey?” said Leni. “How can they tell them apart?”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The others just gave her nervous smiles, as they continued to go on their wildlife tour. “Where's Lana?” asked Lincoln, as he noticed she wasn't in the vehicle.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”There she is,” said Luna, as they saw Lana in the pouch of a kangaroo, as she was hopping along.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Well, that's quite a site,” said Trent, as she got out, and got back into the vehicle. “That was quite impressive, but please stay in the vehicle.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I couldn't help it,” said Lana. “I had to observe a kangaroo up close, and it was so cool.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I got a picture of that,” said Lincoln, as he showed them the image on his phone.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Everyone back home is going to love this,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Look at that,” said Lynn, as they saw a sugar glider, gliding across the air.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Cool!” said the others.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They observed more animals, and later on, they were at a diner having dinner. What should we do tomorrow?” asked Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Well, we are going to that place, where we'll get to see dolphins up close tomorrow,” said Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I can't wait for that,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The following day, the Loud siblings were taken to see the dolphins, and they were all happy that they got to get into a pool, and be close to them. “This is so awesome,” said Lana, as she petted one of the dolphins.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Would one of you like to kiss a dolphin?” asked the worker.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'll do it,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Very well!” said the worker, as Lincoln approached the dolphin, and kissed her.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Did one of you get a picture of that?” asked Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”No need for that,” said the worker. “We took care of that,” said the worker, as another worker with a camera stood on one side of the pool.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'm sure everyone back home will love to see that,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Would anyone else care to kiss a dolphin?” asked the worker.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I would!” said Leni, as she kissed a male dolphin. Another picture was taken, and they later got out of the pool area, and went to hang out at the cafe near the dolphin pool.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”This vacation is a real blast,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yeah!” said the rest of the siblings.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”So, where would you like to go next?” asked Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”May we visit the Opera House in Sydney?” asked Lisa.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Of course!” said Trent. “We have reservations to attend tomorrow evening.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I can't wait,” said Lisa, as she was ecstatic.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The following evening, the Loud siblings were all dressed up, and Trent (who was in a tux) was ready to drive them to the Sydney Opera House. “Ready to go?” asked Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You bet we are,” said Lisa, as they drove to Sydney.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They arrived at the Opera House, and found their seats, as they watched the show. “This will be quite a show of culture,” said Lincoln, as he spoke to the audience.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Hush elder sibling,” said Lisa. “It's starting.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The opera started, and the Loud siblings sat their, as they watched the show. “This is quite boring,” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Quite, and just try to enjoy the show,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Okay!” said Lynn, as they watched the show. After a while, they all seemed to get into it, and they all had a nice time at the opera.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”This has been such an awesome vacation,” said Lana, as they were all sitting on the couch in their PJs.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You said it,” said Lynn, as she was playing hackysack.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”It's a shame that it's going to by so quickly, isn't it?” said Leni.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Before we know it, it will be time to head back home,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”We've still got one more week,” you guys,” said Luna. “Let's make the most of what's left of our vacation.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Yeah!” said the siblings.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Their vacation was a real blast, as they spent the remainder of their time visiting many sites, going on more wildlife tours, and encountering many of Australia's wildlife, and even a submarine voyage, where they got to see dugongs, and even sharks, which they were able to get pictures of. They also managed to get pictures of sea turtles, and wild dolphins, and at another wildlife preserve, Lincoln took a picture with gang-gang cockatoos on both of his arms, Luna took a picture holding a koala, Leni got a picture holding a platypus, Lynn got a picture holding a goanna, and Lisa took a picture with a baby kangaroo “This wildlife research center is the best,” said Lana.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”You said it,” said the siblings, as they all took a picture holding a large python.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They later arrived back at their suite, and were saddened that it was their last day. “Man, this vacation went by so fast,” said Lynn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”But at least we had a blast,” said Luna.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”We have so many great memories,” said Leni, as she was going through the pictures on her phone.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I knew this would be a great vacation,” said Lincoln, “and I'm glad I got to share with all of you.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Thank you for having us little bro,” said Luna, as they all did a group high five.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The following day, they were getting their bags ready to be put into Trent's vehicle, and they had quite a few bags of souvenirs. “My, you've got quite a lot of bags,” said Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I guess you can say we're bringing some of Australia back home with us,” said Lincoln.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'm glad you enjoyed your Australian vacation mates,” said Trent. “I'm glad that I was your tour guide. You were a great group of people to spend time with.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I'm gonna miss you,” said Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Thanks for everything Trent,” said Lincoln, as they gave them all a farewell group hug. “We're glad that we made a new friend while down here.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I hope I'll get to see you again someday, and maybe meet the rest of your family,” said Trent.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Hopefully!” said Lincoln, as they waved goodbye to Trent, as they entered the terminal, and boarded their plane. They got seated, the plane got ready, and took off.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Sometime later, they arrived back home, and their family were all waiting in the airport. “It's been really lonely with out them for two weeks,” said Lola.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They got out of the plane, and met up with their family. “Hey everybody,” said Lincoln, as they all went up to each other.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”We can't wait to hear all about it,” said Lynn Sr. as they all got their bags, and went into Vanzilla.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">They arrived back at the Loud House, and the six of them got unpacked and settled in, as it cuts to the evening, as everyone's in the living room, with the six of them telling the rest of their family about their trip. “That sounds like an amazing vacation,” said Luan.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”I regret not wanting to go now,” said Lori.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Me too!” said Lola.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Not to mention these shoes,” said Lori.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">-”Who wants to hear some Australian beats?” said Luna, as she played her didgeridoo.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">The rest of the family liked the sound she was delivering, as Lincoln looked towards the audience. “I'm glad I had a chance to share something like this with my family. This was truly a vacation that we'll never forget, and we have a lot of great stories to tell. See you later mates,” said Lincoln in an Australian accent, as he went to have fun with the rest of his family.

The End

Trivia

 * I came up with this idea last summer, but completely forgot about it until earlier this year.
 * I announced this fan fiction back around March I think, but I didn't write it until later, because I wanted to save this story for the summer.
 * This is the first in a series of summer related Loud House stories I will be making.
 * AnimationFan15 helped me come up with the joke where Lana gets annoyed by people clapping at the end of a flight. That's listed as a pet peeve on her Q&A, but I didn't know that until AnimationFan15 told me.
 * AndrewBrauer helped come up with the idea of Luna playing at a Karaoke bar, and I even asked his advice for how he'd imagine it would go.
 * I consulted with YoshiRocker13, since he lives in Australia, and helped me with a few elements I had in the story.
 * The part where they see a clownfish and a blue tang at the Great Barrier Reef is a reference to the Pixar film, Finding Nemo.
 * The part where Leni jokes if the platypus is a secret agent is a reference to Perry the Platypus, from Phineas and Ferb.
 * I mention the now extinct Tasmanian tiger, during the opening scene.
 * This is currently my second longest fan fiction, after Big Top Lincoln.
