#3 - there are many photos of people doing this. In HI, we were told - "NEVER turn your back on the sea". Turns out, every year in HI there is some tourist who is seriously injured or drowns (carried out to sea) when several tons of water suddenly flushes them out of their picture spot.
#4 Part of my swim training is doing 25 metre sprints. I was once watching the swimming world championships on TV and observed that, in the 1500 metre freestyle the world class swimmers were swimming a faster pace than I was on my sprints. Maybe all I need is the right incentive.
#1 reminds me of good ol home cooking. Dad used to say he thought he was a Greek god because all he ever got for supper was burnt offerings. Mom did NOT like to cook.
I live by the sea. I swear we need to build mandatory information centers by all the roads with instructors and tests before we let anyone drive on our roads or go to the ocean. Between numbskulls who won't use the turnouts to let people pass and the maniacs who get swept into the drink or fall/drive off the cliffs into it... oh, gawd, it's beyond the pale.
You haven't lived until you've screamed yourself hoarse trying to get the attention of some besotted honeymooners who are standing out on a rock, blissing out on the sunset, not realizing the tide is coming in and they have maybe a minute to get their asses back on the sand before they're fish food, or snatched someone's arm just as he's about to get clapped off terra firma by a wave.
Maybe even pop quizzes at certain intervals along the roads.

ReplyDelete#4 - That is a shark fin, right ? At first, I thought it was a dolphin or popoise.

ReplyDeleteMy dad would ONLY eat burnt offerings. Heh. Ruined my mother's cooking for life.
