Jet Ski

shirt on I made my dad go in. We walk up to the entrance and go through these thick pieces of plastic that count as doors, then there was a chicken running around that the owned used as a guard dog. If you’re feeling courageous enough, you can rent jet skis, I personally cannot get myself to get on one. I’m scared I’m going to fall and get eaten by sharks, very unlikely.

We watch nature on a tv screen or a small phone but, we do not realize the beauty of nature until we see it in person. In Walt Whitman’s short poem, “When I heard the Learn’d Astronomer” he describes how seeing something on a projector is nothing compared to experiencing it for yourself.
