So, as many of you know, I have
been very excited about going shark cage diving for a while now. Sure, I was a
little anxious, but whatever! I’m in South Africa! The day finally arrived. I
woke up at the crack of dawn (5:30), ate a bland breakfast and tossed two
Dramamines down the hatch. The 2 hour drive to the spot was painless, and I was
hopeful that the boat ride would be as well. But because I’m Ginny Sanborn, it
wasn’t. Not even 20 minutes in, I start getting seasick. Very very seasick. So
I did not shark cage dive that weekend. I spent however many hours curled up in
a corner of the boat with my little baggies. Luckily, I have been blessed with
friends who have strong stomachs who sat with me the entire time.
I
should also mention that before I got sick, I saw 2 insanely massive great
white sharks. And on the way back to shore, we saw about 50 little seal pups!
So even though I had the most inconvenient ab workout ever, I did get to see
some lil’ critters.
On
that note, should you feel the urge to send me a care package (which you
should), Dramamine is always needed!
Until
next time,
7 bag Ginny
