Some luck lies not in getting what you thought you wanted but getting what you have, which once you have got it you may be smart enough to see is what you would have wanted had you known.

Until we figured out they were rays I was quite a bit panicked as a shark thats 6' wide would be one big muther. It was the time of year for them to be 'doing the nasty' so I think they were checking us out. Was awesome to watch once I concluded they couldn't snap the boat in half.

Those rays are not as cute and cuddly as you might think. RIP Steve Irwin.
