Like, these are down women to adventure.
They're like, yeah, let's go whitewater rafting.
And I'm like, hey, I can't swim, and I really need to make this flight because I have work tomorrow, so I don't think we should go whitewater rafting.
Imagine this going on for about two hours, and then imagine it ending with us in a van on our way to Victoria Falls for the whitewater rafting, reading the release waiver in the van.
And learning that the Zambezi River is a class five or stage five river.
There are no stage six rivers for whitewater rafting.
That's it.
It is a stage five river.
And amateurs and people who can't swim are not supposed to be on that river whitewater rafting.
Fast forward an hour later, I'm shaking and basically crying.
Everyone else is super pumped.
We're all ladled up in our vests.
And the guides are like, a 97-year-old woman did this yesterday.
You're fine.
I'm like, she sounds hardcore.
I'm not.
I can't swim.
He then shows me how safe it's going to be by throwing Lorraine into the river at like a calm part, and of course her vest boobies her straight up, and he's like, see, you're going to be just fine.
You'll float up just like that too.
And in my head I'm like, maybe, yeah, like maybe I'll live through this.
