Attack of the Asian Carp!

We took Brex on his first boat ride and thought it was going to a be leisure cruise – NOT! About 5 minutes into the slow 45 minute paddle boat ride, a HUGE Asian Carp jumped out of the water onto the boat. I leaped out of my seat and swore louder than ever before. Thankfully, Brex was strapped to me and protected in the Bjorn. I told the guy on shore that a warning that could happen would have been nice, and he said “Oh, you only had 1? A boat the other day got 3 jumpers on board in 1 ride”. Stupid guy and stupid fish!

This ride looks safe enough, no?????

The stupid BLEEPING fish that almost killed us...

Luckily Brex was safe in mommy's arms. Mommy however, suffered a gash to the ankle ball bone that will leave a nice scar to remember the death defying incident.
