Neptune Memorial Reef

I'm normally vaguely fearful of water, but I'd actually like to visit this place some day. What a fabulous idea. Click on the link below to watch a little minute long video. Enjoy a tiny tour of a beautiful place.

What does that mean? Vaguely fearful of water? Please explain.

I think I likely drowned in a previous life.

As a child I was deathly afraid of other kid's "dunking" me. I am uneasy on boats, much to my Dad's chagrin.

I dream often of ocean storms where I am at the mercy of the water element.

I have been lifted up onto a boat seconds after a shark started circling me.

I think that pretty much explains it, (and I could pretty easily come up with more!)

:D

Ok, all valid reasons, thank you for sharing.

Did your parents "teach you to swim" by throwing you in the water?

Mine did. And I hated getting dunked. What fun is that?

No tossing of kiddles in the water from my parents, HOWEVER. I had swimming lessons in freezing water early mornings from a less than friendly sweat shirt clad and DRY swim instructor.

I used to actually make an announcement if I was in a pool with friends as teens..."DO NOT DUNK ME" What a nerd.

Get this: We actually now have a very lovely pool in our backyard. I rarely put a foot into it. I am happy when others enjoy it, but I'd just as soon fill it with dirt and grow vegetables.

I'm not into water too much either. Like Candace I have a lot of water themed dreams that end badly. Mostly about torrential storms and raging rivers.

Girl, try floating on an air mattress in your cement pond, heaven!
