Today was a GREAT day! We went for a tour around the bay on segway scooters! I totally felt like a tourist. Camera around neck and all! We had a blast though. Photos up on Flickr for those that are interested.
We only had one really close call today with injuries. One of the women in our group was poking up a hill and was following the scooter to close in front of her and WHAMO! onto the ground she flew! Helmet flew off....it was quite a sight! I was worried that she hit her head harder than she did. And, because she didn't have her helmet strapped on, it flew off the second she hit the ground. I knew something was up when I heard the squeal of tires. I turned around to see her do this weird half twisty thing off of the scooter onto her side and then to the pavement.
Then, not to be outdone, after about two and a half hours of riding ALL over the PB area, Rita zoomed back into the scooter store and came to a stop inside....then totally forgot how to dismount the thing and ended up doing a faceplant into the carpet. I haven't laughed that hard in a while. After I asked if she was okay, of course. really!
