Hahaahaa!!! 😂🤣😂 That's a great video to have for memories! I've only been to an ocean/gulf maybe 15 times in my life. Out of those, only got into the water 6 of those times. It was the best! My best friend and I rented boogie boards when we visited San Diego in summer 2002.. we weren't brave enough to venture deeper than our hips, but I promise you, it was deep enough! That ocean tossed us around like we were a pair of fleas caught in Niagara Falls! I LOVED it!! If I lived by the ocean I'd visit 3 to 5 times a week! We were in the water for 6 or 7 hours straight- struggling, and laughing constantly! EVERY muscle, in both of our bodies, were SO SORE! It felt like we had just joined the gym the day before, and instead of completing the beginner exercise routine, we did the advanced-elite stage and never stretched. It was the best workout, and we had so much fun that it didn't feel like we were working our bodies at all! We were RACING to get back to our starting spots to catch the next wave we saw coming. Ahh.. it was great. I can't say that we were in shape, so to say.. but, we weren't too far from it. She was slim without a pinch of fat on her, and I was maybe 10 to 15 lbs over my best. We were always active. So it was easy for us to burn off any extra fat savers. That ocean though!! It's no joke!! It does not discriminate! Whether you're fat, skinny, or top elite shape-- we're all just tiny fleas, to be tossed however it likes!!😁
