C U Next Tuesday
Securrity! I know when you go on a tour or are forced to be around unfamiliar people, there's always one person who tries to ruin it for someone. Today I went into manhattan with my visiting family to go on the duck tour. A huge perk (at least for me!) is that they give you a whistle that sounds like a duck call. Happily sitting on the duck tour, myself and my nephew were blowing our whistles, just like everybody else on the boat. About 20 minutes into the tour we were asked to "knock it off" by the woman pictured above. Myself and my nephew stopped but my younger nephews continued. The woman continued to look back everytime the whistle could be heard. She decided to seek out the mother of these unruly children and complain that my nephew, sitting two seats behind her, was blowing the whistle in her ear. She felt really stupid when I looked her dead in the face and told her he couldn't be blowing it in her ear because he actually blowing it in mine. There is always one person who tries ruin the fun for everyone else. If this woman wanted quiet for her "sensitive ears" (like mine aren't sensitive??) she should have gone to a museum or perhaps a silent film. Why go on a tour that touts a free duck whistle with ticket purchase? BTW: If you haven't done the duck tour, do it! It's so much fun!!!
