In the Interview of Malin Akerman with Vince Vaughn about their couples retreat and their poker hobbies:
Were there things that guys went off and did together and then things that the girls went off and did together?
Vince Vaughn: Fishing and sewing. That's just an old expression. You go to a barbecue or something and the guys are always huddling and talking about sports or whatever, and you say, 'Oh, you're breaking off into fishing and sewing.
Malin Akerman: A lot of the girls sat by the people and had maybe a pina-colada or two at the end of the day, sat at the restaurant. Kristen Bell is quite crafty. She's like a little Martha Stewart and so she'd literally call me in my room and say, 'Do want to come up for pudding?' I'd be like, 'You have pudding?' She had everything. She had Scrabble. So it was a lot of board games and a lot of that kind of stuff. I don't know what you guys did, what the boys did.
Vince Vaughn: I spent a lot of time with my fiance We had a lot of fun which was good and then my sister was there and my nephew was there.
Malin Akerman: We had that poker day.
Vince Vaughn: We had a poker day which was really fun.
Malin Akerman: It rained and so we could do nothing that day but poker.
Vince Vaughn: The jet skis were really, going and doing that. We went and swam with the sharks which was crazy. That was great to do. I never thought I'd do that. I was always afraid of that, anything in the ocean because I grew up around lakes. So we did that and that was good.
