“Are you crazy?” my wife was surprised. “There’s kayaking, canoeing, hiking…”
“I know,” I sighed.
“…ziplining, bus tours, train rides…”
“I know,” I repeated.
“And you’d rather…?”
“Come on, it’ll be fun,” I insisted. “There really aren’t excursions like this anywhere else in the world!”
“No thanks, I’d rather stay in the cabin. Either that or go with you with a paper bag over my head. Go have fun on YOUR excursion.”
With that, my wife plopped down on the bed and refused to say another word. But I still wanted to do this, so I left the ship and went to my excursion on the dock.
“Welcome!” the guide greeted the small group of people who had gathered near the sign marking the site of the excursion. “No doubt you had to put up with snickering and words of disbelief from those in your travel group, but it’s well worth it as this is the only excursion of its kind in the entire world. I know you’re all excited, so let’s get started. Let me show you how to drive a forklift.”
