Go boating in a scary, rickety dingy.
——-
This reminds me of my high school trip to the Bahamas. We were out on the boats one day, and some wild dolphins started following us. So we stopped the boats and jumped out. When we stopped moving, the dolphins seemed to disappear in the slightly murky water.
.
Once we got out, we noticed it was fairly shallow - the water was chest height. We waited. And we started to think the dolphins had swam away. But after a minute or two the dolphins reappeared. They were swimming all around us - just past arm’s length. And they started jumping. Over us, around us… it was amazing. WILD dolphins. I had always wanted to swim with a dolphin, but I knew that it would be a trained, domesticated animal.
.
Never in a million years would I have guessed that I would be in the water almost within reach of such a graceful and intelligent untamed animal. It was the kind of experience that permanently changes you and that you know you will never forget.
