| Summary: | |
| Two college students are trying to decide where to spend their two month anniversary. Justin wants to go to the Indonesian coastline and Sherri has some reservations concerning his choice due to past tsunami occurrence. Sherri suggests that if Justin can provide evidence that the likelihood of tsunami occurring during their mid summer vacation is not likely she would consider it. | |
