Rough Week for the Orlando Chamber of Commerce

[Gemini]

Take a low flying tour, or a parasail...and watch the near shore shark conveyor.

Little sharks come up close or semi close but don't really attack much. In most beaches if a shark is spotted too close they make everyone get out. Under tow is way scarier than sharks IMO. When I was about 12 I nearly drown when the undertow sucked me out from the beach. Huge waves were painfully crashing down forcing me fairly deep user the water. I'd catch a quick breath then get slammed down again. I had second second degree sunburn that day.

The best plan (or the one I prefer) take a shit load of sunscreen and protective clothing and accessories and drinking water. Go to the beach and make sand castles and play in the edge no more than 1.5-2 ft in. Keep a close eye on your stuff so you'll know you're not being moved away by the water. After an hour of that, go back to your hotel and spend the rest of the day swimming in a pool looking at the ocean.

That's sounds like good plan. Fortunately my boys take after me and are scared to go too far out without me. I'll bet we inherited some genes that saved somebodies lives.

And I usually keep sunscreen slathered on my boys. They might get a little red, but so far no peeling. My husband is another matter entirely though. "Ah, I don't need any sunscreen, I'm good." Two days later he's laying in the hotel room moaning with sun blisters
