Students seriously engaged in field work at the Rainforest Cafe Smoothie bar. Note the worksheet on the bar and the pens borrowed from the bartender. The refrain "Salamander Safari of 4 please approach the Elephant, your adventure is about to begin." echoes throughout the cafe. The "Magic of the Mall" is broken after about an hour of waiting for our food to arrive. |
| Matt and Melinda escape the clutches of "The Mother" wallets (mostly) intact. |  |
