Banana Boat

He’d never been on a banana boat before because he thought it was a little too silly, to childish, to rough, and too cold. But he was a sucker for peer pressure, so son gave in. He bought his ticket with the rest of them, downed his beer, put on his cozzie, took off his sunnies, and scrambled onto the floating sausage. As they cruised he saw a pelican and a sea lion. He got salt in his eyes and diesel fumes in his mouth and a bruise on his bum. He laughed and shouted, had fun and so on.

  1. But the entire tone of this still makes it sound routine and that the person did NOT really have fun.
