When two intrepid friends can't agree on where to go, they set off on their own. But both realize exploring together would be more fun. Friends Garcia and Colette can't agree on where to go exploring. Garcia's determined to go outer space but Colette is certain the ocean would be much better, so they decide to head out on their own. Garcia builds a rocket while Colette builds a submarine. They each pack their gear and a lot of sandwiches and embark on their journeys. But when they arrive in space and deep under the sea, they realize both places are lonely without a friend. Luckily, when they get home, they find a compromise-a place full of stars and sand that they can enjoy together.
