Thanks for the invite M&G. I'm loving the friendliness and welcome attitude of this board. I've been on other board groups and get fed up with the bickering that occurs....not here

I'm a pretty laid back person...not to much fazes me.

I've been to Glistening Waters actually...have a story about that. We were at the RIU in Ocho and had bad weather for several days so we decided to check out Glistening Waters. We saw the colours by the prop and he said if you go in when you come out you are a human glow stick..sounded cool to me. I'm not a great swimmer but the Rasta guide said "no problem". You can stand everywhere..it's not deep...yea well..he failed to mention the strong current. I went in and my friends husband and the currently immediately took me far away from the boat.. Stand?!?! It's a silt bottom...ain't no standing. I'm kind of panicking at this point and as cal as I can say I want to get out..I can't swim to the boat because the current is pulling be further away...it's dark outside and all I can think is what an idiot I am for jumping into unknown waters without a life jacket...by now my husband knows I'm freaking and tells the guy to get his wife out...the guide is still very, very relaxed..my husband gets a little more vocal and he finally brings the boat closer to me and I get up...not glowing..another thing we could have thought of is the organisms in the lagoon need sunlight to be activated and it had been cloudy for days..another thing we could have thought of....so...much as I'd like to see the Glistening Waters I think I'll pass
