Cold-Water Snorkeling


During our honeymoon my wife and I went snorkeling on one of those catamarans that tourists love to pile onto. We arrived at the reef, I put on my stuff and climbed into the water. She tarried at the bottom of the steps they'd lowered into the sea. The stairs only accommodate one person at a time, and she requested that I swim closer to her before she got into the water since it was so cold. While I was making my way towards her, the woman behind her made eye contact with me and then gave her shove into the water. Her shout was more from surprise than the coldness when she hit the water. The woman looked at me and said, "You couldn't very well get away with that." And she's right, I owe her one.
