Yesterday I was at Pa'ia Bay Beach with my old friend Dannee and right as we were getting out of the water a dude walks up to us and asks us if we saw the strange shark-like fins jutting out of the water. We looked back at the light blue-green, filled with calcium and salt, and sure enough we saw a sharp-edged dorsal fin peak over the surface. The body, traveling slowly, was dark and large. Soon enough the rest of the beach's inhabitants crowded over to take a peak but the beast had already left. I really wanted to walk up to it to confirm its species (it was only about twenty feet away from me), but I didn't want to go down in history for being the man who got bit because he was stupid enough to walk up to a tiger shark.
My brothers have left. Luckily, my friends have picked up some of the slack created by their departure. Also luckily I have now received my new cell phone and can thus call all of my friends again. Joy to the world. They may be far away, but now they are only a phone call away.
