Speaker 1
You mentioned that you go skydiving a lot, but what first made you interested in trying it? It seems like it would be scary, but really thrilling. 
Speaker 2
Well, since I live in Arizona I've always wanted to get a better view of my state and ever since I started sky diving I've found that I really get to see the beauty of it. I've been addicted ever since.
Speaker 1
Oh wow that sounds amazing! How long ago did you start doing it?
Speaker 2
I've been going for over five years now! I heard your grandson went sky diving before, have you ever tried it?
Speaker 1
I have not. I've been very tempted several times but have not taken the leap! I think that going someplace out west like you would be cooler that in New York.
Speaker 2
Haha yes, I'm sure it wouldn't be as fun over there. Although, if it were possible, I think sky diving amongst the sky scrapers of New York City would be super cool. Probably very dangerous though LOL.
Speaker 1
Oh dear I would be so scared going in between sky scrapers! What is your favorite place to sky dive?
Speaker 2
Sedona down here in Arizona is very beautiful! In the summer it can be very hot but you get to see all the pretty orange rock formations and you can catch a pretty nice updraft which helps for sky diving and hang gliding.
Speaker 1
Oh that sounds like it would be beautiful!
Speaker 2
Yes, It is! Not as cooling as the beach though. I love Arizona but I wish we had more water to cool off in.
Speaker 1
Water is definitely great for cooling down! We have the Finger Lakes up in New York and they are beautiful!
Speaker 2
I would love to visit there sometime!

Speaker 1
I have my grandson over this weekend, I think we're going to make some Mediterranean tapas food, it will be delicious! 
Speaker 2
Mediterranean food awesome. I think I am having some tonight. I carving their vegetables since they are so good.
Speaker 1
Do you cook the vegetables on the grill? I've heard that it can impart a more authentic flavor.
Speaker 2
Usually, but tonight we going to a restaurant its my birthday and I don't think I should have to cook myself dinner.
Speaker 1
Happy Birthday! I completely agree, you deserve to not have to deal with cooking. What's your favorite item on their menu?
Speaker 2
Shakshuka is one of my favorites, but I always love their shrimp pasta and the baked chicken drumsticks. There is just so many. I might try something new tonight.
Speaker 1
Hey, you can't go wrong with that approach! I need to be more adventuresome when I go out to eat. I usually just order the usual when I'm at my regular restaurants, but I think I'm missing out.
Speaker 2
Yes, I always try to try something new at least once a month. I don't always like it and won't get it again. But I have gotten some really great new dishes this way.
Speaker 1
I'll try to take after you! So who is coming along with you for this birthday dinner?
Speaker 2
Tonight is just my husband, my parents, his parents and some adults and uncles. Tomorrow we are having a home meal so the kids in the family can celebrate my birthday also.
Speaker 1
Oh wow, that's a big group! It sounds like you must get along pretty well with your in laws, though, so that's great!
Speaker 2
Yes, they are great. I got lucky with them cause I know some can be horrible.

It was ok. I had a seafood entree. I didn't want to do too much though as I am going out again tonight! This time for Mexican!!
Speaker 1
Oh wow, have you decided on the restaurant? 
Speaker 2
Well, my family is in town and they really like Joses so we are going to go there. Have you been there?
Speaker 1
That's great. I have never been to Joses, What's their special?
Speaker 2
Not sure what the special is today, but I really like their chicken chimichanga. You know me and trying new foods tho. If they have something new, I might try that. They usually don't disappoint. Maybe you and your grandson should try it
Speaker 1
Sounds delicious but i  have never had a chicken chimichanga and i avoid food that i don't know about. I might try this one though. . 
Speaker 2
Ya, I think Joses in NY is down near Broadway. That might be a bit of a drive for you two. It would be a shame to go all that way and then not like it. What is your go to restaurant?
Speaker 1
Yeah that would be a stretch, You know my son likes tacos so that that what we eat lol. How was your birthday party?
Speaker 2
The party is tonight. Got all kinds of family coming into town. Hope I can get through it all! You know how it is, soo many people and trying to say hello to all of them! Also not a fan of being the center of attention! BUT!! We'll have good food!!
Speaker 1
That is so great, It is all good when you have good food and champagne. 
Speaker 2
I'm actually hoping for a good Margarita from Joses. We'll have to touch base again after tonights festivities. I'm sure I'll have some stories to tell! Just another chapter in a book right?!

Speaker 1
How was your birthday party? Tell me all about it!
Speaker 2
It was fun we went to the beach. I went swimming and dug up some sand crabs.
Speaker 1
That sounds nice. It as perfect weather for the beach today.  Did the whole family go with you? Did they get you a cake?
Speaker 2
Yes, the whole family went. We went to a favorite restaurant. I had a birthday cake. The employees sang happy birthday to me.
Speaker 1
Nice! I always get embarrassed when people at a restaurant make a big deal over my birthday. Did you enjoy all the attention?
Speaker 2
Yes, it was fun.  I was a little shy at first when started singing.I love the restaurants chicken chimichanga.
Speaker 1
Sounds great.  I've never had a chimichanga, I usually stick to enchiladas when eating Mexican food. I guess I'm not very adventurous when it comes to eating.  Did anyone get you any presents for your birthday?
Speaker 2
Yes, I had a party. My wife and kids got me got me an electric razor. I hate to shave. There was so many people there from my family. I try new few every month or so.
Speaker 1
I guess an electric razor is an ok gift, but it isn't very exciting. I thought maybe someone would have gotten you a gift certificate for skydiving, or hot air ballooning. I would love to go ballooning.
Speaker 2
I am afraid of heights. Skydiving would be a punishment not a gift. 
Speaker 1
Well that's just weird, I thought you said you've been a skydiver for over 5 years. Did you have a bad experience recently?
Speaker 2
I went skydiving because I was in the military. It was part of my job. It was a way to pay for college.
