Well Katie, here’s one. It really was, a very dangerous situation. I was in Costa Rica and I was at the beach...and I had not checked before, to find out...how the current was running in the ocean that day. I am a very experienced swimmer, and er...a boarder and body surfer and I should have known better, Katie, but I...I think I got a little ahead of myself...and I got my foot in the water, and it was, absolutely lovely...and I saw that there were big waves out a little bit farther...but, I sort of just lay down in the water, and very very quickly, the water carried me out, into the current. And I found that I could not easily get back, into shore. And er, the waves were very...irregular, which means that I couldn’t body surf on them. So that meant, that I had to decide which way, I was going to try to make it back to shore. And the traditional wisdom, is to go diagonal ...out of the current. And er, I did that, a little bit, but it was a big...fight, and the waves were so big and so strong, and so...irregular, that I couldn’t predict them and it was very difficult to not...drink a lot of salt water which is really bad to do... So it took me a very long time to get out of it, I’m very lucky that I was er...a good swimmer and...I managed to get out if it, but that was a dangerous situation.
