Octavia Vermont’s house

The Vermont family live in a beautiful and large house surrounded by acres of its own immaculately kept grounds and gardens.

The bees are always buzzing and the flowers are always smelling beautiful here. It is a veritable Garden of Eden.

There is also o More than gardening ften the sound of cannons and explosions because the large gardens are where Commander Vermont carries out his (almost daily) military maneuvers with the soldiers who obey his every command — even if the orders seem bizarre.

Octavia Vermont likes to sit in the garden and read or play music and amid the minefields and mortar ranges can sometimes be heard Octavia’s virtuoso cello or piano music.

Giles Gordon’s House

Giles Gordon lives with his mother, Dorothy, and Grandpa Gordon in a nice standard suburban household. The Gordons have only recently moved into Sunset Cove but brought all their personal belongings with them and the new house quickly became a home.

The family usually gathers in the communal living room, which becomes the focus of family activity such as talking, breakfast and other mealtimes, or watching television. Grandpa Gordon has almost become a permanent fixture in this room and spends most of his time in front of the television.

The Diner

In town can be found the popular local diner. It is here that Giles’ mother, Dorothy Gordon, works occasionally as a waitress.

The diner specialises in hamburgers, hot dogs, fries and milkshakes.

Many students (and teachers) from Atlantis High meet up in the diner after a busy day at school to catch up over the latest gossip and news — and to enjoy a delicious (if not too nutritious) meal.

Sunset Cove High Street

A shoppers paradise! If you are looking for haute couture or the latest from Paris or Milan, you will find it in the high street of Sunset Cove. There are also restaurants galore — n street2 one more popular than the local diner.The citizens of Sunset Cove walking around all seem to have beautiful teeth that sparkle in the sun, or carry a surfboard on their way to the beach.

THE BEACH

The residents of Sunset Cove spend many a weekend (and weekday) at the beach. And with all its natural beauty, it is no wonder the beach is so popular. It has a beautiful view of the ocean and the pounding surf crashing onto the shore, sun drenched sand that stretches as far as the eye can see in both directions, and a blazing sun overhead that promises the best of suntans to all who laze under it.

The beach is a focus for many social activities ranging from beach volleyball to Frisbee,
weightlifting to jogging, sunbathing and just hanging out with friends. If the wind is up then the surf is up, and you will be guaranteed to see surfing, swimming and boating at the beach.

If you are looking for ocean girls with teeth like pearls and muscle-bound guys trying to catch their eyes, then the beach is the place to go. It is not a place a nerd would want to go to because they would stand out in a place full of natural (and human) beauty — and that is how Giles Gordon feels when he goes there.
