The Big Red Shark

An
And, this is how we ended the day. We were out playing with the kids in the ocean when the guys with the towable came over and coerced us to all take a ride. Perhaps if truth be told, it didn't take too much coersion.... So. Off we went. They gave the little kids a pretty good ride, then put them in the boat so it was only adults on the shark, and, thanks to Jimmy's heckling, proceeded to do everything in their power to drown us. I don't know when I've laughed so hard, nor when I've hit the water with such velocity. Enough to knock out Jimmy's omnipresent toothpick. They pulled us until it got dark, and until Kito (who was primarily responsible for bouncing all of us off) was too tired to climb back on. Ok. None of us could get back on the 12th time... The guys actually thanked US as we straggled back to shore - they said we absolutely made their day. I think that's supposed to make the bruising seem better tomorrow :-)
