While Excursion implies movement away from a place, Stick around implies staying in the same place.The other options don't match:A. Farrago means a mixture or confusion of things.B. Expedition is a synonym of Excursion, but not the correct answer because the question is looking for a word that has a contrasting meaning.C.
