Day 127: Float Slowly, Relax, and Enjoy…Or Just Go Ahead and Rock the Boat
Day 127: May 7, 2014: Roatan
Whilst snorkeling amongst the cruise ship people today (who were, among other things, spilling their beers into the ocean while attempting to feed Corn Pops to the fish), I came across this sign.
It basically says to follow the signs and arrows, relax, float slowly, and enjoy as fish and other marine organisms appear around you. I saw lots of organisms, but no other signs…
Later in the day, we made a journey thorugh the clouds of stinging jellies in West End to get to a busted ass old sailboat anchored in the bay. Well beyond it’s sailing life, and with a slightly crooked mast, someone parked this vessel out in the bay to serve as a sort of crazy swingset. Basically, you need enough people shifting back and forth on deck to get the boat swaying. Once the boat is really rocking, someone holding onto the rope attached to the mast has to time their jump just right with the upswing to be flung out high above the water.
Most of us timed it wrong and ended up on our faces in the bay…
