Since arriving in Abu Dhabi, my awareness of jet skis has increased due to their prevalence in the late afternoons just about the time that I used to enjoy laying on the beach after a swim in the sea. In general, it was just an annoying activity that people did here with very little interest to me.
However, in Bali, we tried jet skiing with a guide and I found that I enjoyed the speed on the water; however, it still made me nervous to go too fast as I might fall off or something.
So, the other day M asked about going this weekend. I agreed, though felt a bit hesitant about how fast I might go since I was going to be on a ski on my own. π
However, once on the machine I slowly got comfortable with increasing my speed on the water and learning how to maneuver over the water.
In the end, I maxed out the speed at 55km/hr and flew over the water. Even out in the ocean, it was quite exciting to speed over the waves. We even got to see some dolphins, though I couldn’t quite capture them on camera.
Overall, it was a great time and I think I can get used to it even more! π
