19、e, justin shouted.no way! i followed your directions exactly, luis replied.i dont understand, justin said quizzically. how could you not find the ocean?oh, i found the ocean. thats a little hard to miss. there was just no beach where you said there shouldve been one. half-moon beach wasnt there!just
