The day starts out with the best intentions.
You’ve brought your inflatable flamingo (or unicorn or yellow duck or inner tube…) to your favourite beach in hopes of getting some much-needed R&R.
You wade into the water, throw the shades on, climb aboard, and lie back to soak up the sun…
… when suddenly, you’re jolted awake with the realization that you’ve drifted way out into open water!
Your swimming skills aren’t great and you didn’t wear your lifejacket or PFD, so you attempt to paddle yourself near land with your arms. But the wind’s against you.
You wave your arms, trying to get the attention of people on shore…
…until you lose your balance and slide off your slippery inflatable friend into the water…
