All Things Beach- Monday- 1st period
It was definitely a Danger Shop day today, and today it looked a lot like Hawaii, complete with a surfer boy type standing there, smiling and waving at the class when they came in.
"Today we're going to learn surfing," Kitty told them. "If you know nothing about it, you get a board, you paddle out, and then you stand up and ride the waves and don't fall down."
"There's more to it than that-" the surfer boy started.
"It's a sport that started with the ancient Polynesians, and modern surfing sprang off from that, getting really popular in places like Hawaii and California and Australia in the 50's and 60's," she went on. "I could go onto a whole thing about the history, but it's summer and I don't have my brain turned on so you're just going to listen to this nice guy over here and then try it on your own."

Re: Get your gear
He wasn't terribly adventurous, no. The fact that he was going to get on that board and attempt to surf at all was about his limit, there.
