Seemed like an awesome idea at the time. Go all the way to the other side of town to the recently built marine park. Make sure on that day (a) the weather is confused and (b) every durn public school is having their field trip. Also (c) get feet raped by hoards of tiny fish. But the real adventure was in getting there:
Day began with a geographically challenged cabbie who took us half a dozen block in the wrong way, all while practically insisting the map I brought with me is full of lies. LIES! *shakes fist*
I hope you don’t follow exaggerations too literally cuz seems like every goddamn public school dediced to have their field trips all on the same day, all in the same place. Like a MILLION kids we’re in front of us in line! All of a sudden it was college registration all over again - pick a stub and wait for your number. Decided to wait at the nearby cookie place. For entertainment, I brought a copy of Pirates 2: Stagnetti’s Revenge while using my camera’s zoom too see if my number was up. Lovely
The place itself was rather nice albeit in progress. Though made less memorable due all the kids there. Seems the only place for solitude was the fish spa. To the lots of tiny Doctor Fishes lightly gnawing at your legs noming on dead skin, my callously feet seemed like a feast. My “date” in the sense got cheated due to me practically hogging all the fishies but given how effing gross and awkward it felt, she didn’t care. Them little bastards raped me.
Like I said, the place was still in progress. Wouldn’t mind going back once it’s all done. I mean we’ve pretty much experienced numerous red flags first hand to know better and make the 2nd trip a little more worthwhile. Plus i’d bring friends. And watch them squirm in the fish spa. Just because.
