Things to Do at the Beach, Galactica Point, Friday Morning, Class #4

[fh_extras]

"Good morning," Jarod grinned, more focused than he'd been the week before. He was also wearing a swimsuit and his hair was damp. There was also a battery-operated CD player, currently playing The Beach Boys' greatest hits. "It's getting a bit warmer, so I thought we could try something a little different today. Today we'll be surfing. We have a collection of surfboards or bodyboards for you to choose from. Be careful with them, though, since they're on loan."

"Also," he said, gesturing towards a pile of equipment over on the sand, "we've got wetsuits available, if the water's too cold for you."

He grinned, possibly anticipating getting back out and doing some surfing for himself. "For those of you who don't want to surf, there's also some snorkeling equipment. All I ask is that you be careful, swim with a buddy, and snorkel in an area away from where people are surfing, so we don't have any accidents. Or there's always the get a tan and build sand castles option."

The CD player switched to Jan and Dean. "Go have fun!"

On the beach

[fh_extras]

Get a tan, make a sand castle, etc.

Tans are good. Jaye's getting a good one this summer. Maybe she'll go out and do something a little later.


[Around for about an hour, then back later.]

Isabel took a seat on the sand next to Jaye. Jack danced around Jaye and yipped.

"So, I was thinking..."

[fates_jaye]

"Yeeees?" Jaye asks, waving hello at the fox.

Parker came by and patted a hyper Jack after Isabel and Jaye had been talking a while. "It's possible Jarod is the biggest dork on the beach. But I'm glad we're finally surfing."

Molly knew how to surf and she knew how to snorkel so she didn't need to practice either. Plus, after her run this morning, she was feeling lazy today. So, laying out on the beach it was.

Snorkeling

[fh_extras]

Remember to swim with a buddy.

Surfing

Don't get eaten by a shark!

Pippi decides to try surfing.

She also keeps her eye out for sharks. (Or at least keeps her eye out for that shark she and Walter ran into that time (http://static.flickr.com/51/136176175_34bdd492ba.jpg).

"Pippi-bra," Jude greeted her mellowly, swooping by. Of course Jude takes to surfing like a duck to water. It's like skateboarding, only with a bigger board and more wet. Unless you're trying to jump the fountain. Same basic lifestyle, though.

"Hey Jude!" Pippi says and she launches down the wave after him.

Archie put on a pair of the wetsuit trunks (http://www.bodyglove.com/products/product_buy.php?uselist=showcase&selected_prod=http%3A%2F%2Fbodyglove.mwrc.net%2Fxml%2Fen%2Fproduct.xml%3Fproduct_id%3D9584%26include_offline_products%3Dyes%26include_offline_retailers%3Dyes) and also decided to try surfing, because why the hell not? Actually, he opted for the bodyboard instead; it looked slightly less dangerous.

Parker's been waiting *weeks* for this. So of course she has to pick out her board, and then get into a wetsuit. Because it *is* still cold out there.

Re: Surfing

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Parker," Elizabeth smiled at her as she moved across to find her own board and wetsuit.

Re: Surfing

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Hey Liz." Parker grinned, and lowered her voice. "I brought it."

Re: Surfing

[actingltcrumpet.livejournal.com]

Archie waved over at Parker from his bodyboard, which he was attempting to maneuver into position to catch a wave.

Re: Surfing

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker waved-- and promptly fell off her board. "Ack."

OOC

[fh_extras]

It's the punctuation on the post.

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

Eats, Shoots & OOC?

Re: OOC

[actingltcrumpet.livejournal.com]

I think I want that book now.

Re: OOC

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

Hee!

It's actually a pretty funny book considering the subject matter.

It also comes with stickers to deface signs with incorrect punctuations. There are commas/apostrophes, periods, question marks and bangs of various sizes.

There are also "Panda says, "No"!!" stickers to place over punctuation that shouldn't be there.
