Tag passenger ferry carrying their children

Here is a possible scenario:

Scene: A busy passenger ferry docked at a popular tourist destination. The ferry is preparing to depart, carrying a mix of excited families, couples, and solo travelers.

Characters:

  1. John (35), a harried father of two, trying to corral his energetic kids, Emily (8) and Jack (10), onto the ferry.
  2. Sarah (32), a frazzled mother of three, attempting to manage her rambunctious children, Olivia (6), Ava (4), and baby Liam (1), while juggling a stroller, diaper bag, and snacks.
  3. Tom (40), a seasoned traveler, enjoying a quiet moment on the ferry's upper deck, sipping a coffee and watching the scenery.

Action:

As the ferry prepares to depart, John, Sarah, and their children rush to board. The ferry's crew is busy checking tickets and directing passengers to their seats.

John: (frustrated) Come on, kids! We don't want to miss the boat!

Emily: (excitedly) Daddy, can we sit by the window?

Jack: (whining) I don't wanna sit by the window! I wanna sit by the snack bar!

Sarah: (exasperated) Okay, okay, let's just find a seat and get settled. (to her children) Olivia, Ava, hold my hands, and Liam, stay close to Mommy.

As the family finds their seats, Tom looks up from his coffee and smiles at the commotion.

Tom: (to himself) Ah, the joys of family travel.

The ferry sets off, and the passengers settle in for the journey.
