Rant: Point Lookout - Part 2

So after having terrible time fishing, I went back to the Choi Basecamp and ate some croissants with my cousins. That was one of the truly fine moments of that trip. But when I was done om nom noming the food, my mom recommended that we swim in the 'beach' that was nearby. Seeing how we had nothing else to do, we reluctantly agreed to go. But when we got to the 'beach', nature decided the F us over again.

The water was green and full of minorities. That's the first impression I got when I saw the beach. Me and my crew were dismayed at the sight. The beach was full of large pebbles and the water looked like something out of a 70's horror movie. Just as a suspected, when I first stepped on to the beach, hell awaited me. The rocks on the beach were BLOODY sharp and hot as hell. I was literally screaming and swearing until I saw my baby cousin who was 8 not complaining at all. Embarrassed, I quickly forced myself to shut my mouth, the pain continued to assault my nerves anyway.

Just about how I felt inside.

When I finally got in the water, IT WAS AS COLD AS DRY ICE STUCK INSIDE MY PANTS.  The water absolutely frigid and filled with disgusting materials that humanity has not yet invented a name for. I can almost swear that there was some kind of new lifeform being created in that biosphere. I really didn't want to get in the water to begin with, but I thought that coming all the way to point lookout and not even dipping myself in the water would be wasting money. My Asian cheapness F-ed me over again that day....

Asians are like this, only they look like Asians.

So after being contaminated by the eldritch waters of Point Lookout, we had to go to the 'Showering Facility' they had there. The place was rather run down, but looked functional from the outside, I had hoped that I could shower decently. But when I first got inside, me and my cousins discovered that there were only 2 showerheads out of 10 that were working, and that the showerheads only dispensed cold water as well. The latter fact was found out to my own surprise when I got in the shower. Actually, all three of my cousins had to shower under one showerhead because there were rotund hispanic males right next to us. And let me tell you, not that I'm a racist or anything, but it does not feel good when a large tatooed old man is right next you scrubbing his bollocks.

It can be rather detrimental to your health...

After that, the extended family had a decent Asian dinner, during while we were being feasted upon by voracious flies that inhabit the underworld that is Point Lookout, and we went out separate ways to go home. Let me tell you, this trip was definitely memorable, but not that fun. Next time, I demand I go to a place where my health isn't under immediate threat, for example, a pro starcraft match in Korea.
