Jetskis :)
I went on jetskis! Yes! I got sunburn! Nooooooooooo
Yeah so I’ve been waiting to go on these jetskis the whole trip, and I went today because people are mostly gone, and because it’s the last day awwww. I almost got in trouble… they pointed at a boat in the distance and said we couldn’t go past it, but we could go up to it. So I did
I noticed when I got up there that there was a little head bobbing out of the ocean, and he’s like waving me down, so I stop a good distance away from him and try to see what he wants, and he’s yelling at me to get away from him
I was confused but I asked him how far away and he yells at me “500 meters” and I’m not a good judge of distance so I ask him how far away that is… and he just repeats it
And then he tells me like twice as far away as I was. Apparently 500 meters is 5 football fields, so I don’t know what he was on about… but those guys meant some other boat off in the distance, so I got to rip through a lot more ocean and it was FUN. I got up to 40mph at one point
!!
Sooooo I forgot that ocean has a high albedo, and I only put sunblock on my shoulders (because they burn first), and as a result, my face, outer thighs, and the tops of my ass are done for. I’m so pink right now. Ooops. I don’t even know how long it’s been since I last got burned… see, I do this thing called “staying indoors” and I find it usually helps a lot when it comes to sunburn
I wonder how long it will last??? A week???
