*Hour and a half later*

Once Chris and Riley got done playing around with the dolphins, we all walked around the Aquarium for a good 15 minutes before we headed down stairs to do Turtle Talk with Crush. Which was a lot of fun, thanks to it being a good little laugh. And after the show was over we decided to go on the Finding Nemo ride near it a couple times, thanks to the wait not being very long, before we decided to leave and head somewhere else to do more fun things. 

But before we left we stopped at the gift shop there after Riley saw Finding Nemo stuff and wanted to get something. And I let her because whenever we come to Disney I let her get a few things from each park. 

"Mommy can I get this, please?" Riley asked with a big smile as she ran up to me and held a soft plus Dory towards me. 

I smiled at Riley as I took the Dory from her. "Sure, as long as you promise me that you won't lose it somewhere in the park today, okay?" I said as I playfully/softly poked Riley on her nose with the Dory. 

Riley giggled at that as she politely took the doll from me before hugging it close to her chest. 

"I promise that I won't lose it mommy" Riley said as she looked up and smiled at me. 

I smiled back at Riley as I picked her up before I walked over to the register so I can buy the plush Dory for Riley.

"Hey Riley, should I buy this hat?" Chris asked as he walked over to me and Riley with a Nemo hat on his head, that doesn't look like it fits him to well. 

Riley and I both laughed at that and the goofy face he made at us too when we started to laugh. 

"No" Riley said as she shook her head. "It looks to small for your head." 

Chris smiled at Riley as he took the Nemo hat off his head and looked at it before looking back at Riley. 

"You're right it is a little small for me" Chris said as he smiled at Riley again and put the hat back. 

"But would you like this sweetheart?" Chris asked with a smile as he took a plush Squirt from behind his back and held it towards Riley. 

Riley let out  a little gasp in excitement when she saw Squirt before looking at me. 

"Can I mommy?" Riley asked with a hopeful look. 

"Sure, just don't lose it, Okay?" I said as I smiled at Riley again. 

Riley just smiled and nodded her head at me before she took squirt from Chris and hugged it to her body along with the dory one too after he paid for it. 

"Thank you Chris!" Riley said in excitement as she smiled at Chris. 

"You're welcome, munchkin" Chris said as he smiled back at Riley before he softly pinched her cheeks, making her let out a little giggle. 

Chris, my dad and I all smiled at before we all left so we can go somewhere else to have more fun. 

"So where should we go now?" Chris asked as he and Riley played with her new plush Squirt and Dory. And I couldn't help but smile at that. 

"How's about we head over to the World Showcase and spend some time in a few of the countries over there before it's time for our dinner reservation with everyone else?" Dad asked. 

Chris and I both looked at each other and nodded our heads at each other too as we smiled at one another as well. 

"Sounds like a plan" Chris said as he smiled at my had and continued to play around with Riley. 

My dad and I both smiled at Chris as I started to play around with Riley and her new Squirt and Dory doll and as we all began to make our way towards the World Showcase.

When we got over to the World Showcase we decided to go over to the Mexico pavilion and have some fun over there for a bit. 

"Mommy look! Big hats!" Riley said in excitement from Chris' shoulders as she pointed to the little cart we're walking towards that's selling sombrero's. 

"Those are actually sombrero's, munchkin. But they are pretty big aren't they?" I asked as I looked up and smiled at Riley. 

Riley just smiled back at me as she nodded her head 'yes' too before looking back over at the sombrero's. 

"Wanna try one on, sweetheart?" Chris asked. 

"Can we?" Riley asked as she looked down at me in excitement. 

"I don't see why not" I said as I smiled at Riley. Chris and Riley smiled at me before we all walked over to the cart full of sombrero's to try some on and goof around in them too. 

When we got over to the cart I found a light blue sombrero and put it on before grabbing a pink one for Riley and a green one for Chris and putting them on their heads. They both chuckled at that as they fixed the hats on their heads a bit before smiling at me. 

"Smile you three" Dad said with a big smile as he held his camera up towards me, Riley and Chris. Chris, Riley and I all looked over at my dad and smiled for the camera. And after he took the first picture we all made a funny face at the camera, while Chris and I used Riley's hair as mustache's. 

Dad laughed at that as he took another picture of us before showing the picture to us. We all broke out into laughter when we saw the picture and I thought it was pretty cute too. 

"We look goofy" Riley said with a big smile making us all smile at her. 

After we got done goofing around with the sombrero's and put them back we started to walk around the Mexico Pavilion before stopping when we saw cast members dancing to salsa music and getting a bunch of park guest involved in the dancing too. 

We stopped and stood to the side when we saw that as we watched the dancing in enjoyment. I felt a big smile spread across my face as I watched all the different couples joining the dance and having a lot of fun. And as I watched if I wanted to join because I actually really love to dance to salsa music sometimes. I don't of a partner though. But maybe Chris could be my partner if he wants to?

But I doubt he does because he's not very good at salsa dancing. And trust me I know that for I fact because one time when we were younger, maybe about 14 or 15, I tried to teach him how to salsa dance and let's just say it wasn't very good. 

"Want to dance, Ariana?" Chris said with a smile as he looked at me with a curious look. 

I looked up at Chris in a bit of shock, but couldn't help but smile at him. 

"Are you sure? because you do remember what happened the last time you tried to salsa dance, right?" I asked with a little smirk making Chris chuckle a little as he took Riley off his shoulder and set her on her feet on the ground. 

"I do....but I actually started to take lessons for it a few years after you moved away, so I think I'll be better at salsa dancing this time" Chris said with a smile as he walked in front of me. 

I smiled at him again. "Now that it something I would like to see." 

"And you're about to" Chris said with a big smile before he took hold of my hand in his and started to softly pull me towards everyone else who's dancing. 

I blushed a little bit at that action before blushing way more after Chris pulled me close to his chest. Chris smiled at me as he place his hand on my hip and slid his fingers in between mine before we started to dance to the rhythm of the music. And let's just say it was very fun and Chris impressed me very much with his new salsa dance skills.
