This reminds me so much of that Gilligan's Island episode...

when they discovered a jet pack on the island and Gilligan went up to try to get help to get all the castaways rescued and NASA thought he was a UFO and he heard that on the radio and got scared and so landed back on the island.

When I was six years old, I thought that was the coolest thing ever.  Back then, I NEVER thought about strangling Gilligan because he'd botched up another potential chance at rescue. I just wanted a jet pack too. I didn't know that they really didn't exist...back then.

But these days...WOW!  We were on Fort James Beach today on Antigua and spotted this. Guess what now tops our list of things we HAVE to do some day?!!

BTW- this video took over 30 minutes to upload to YouTube using the oh-so-slow wifi at King's Casino. Do you see how I suffer?  Okay, I'll admit I was drinking rum punches the whole time, and chatting with other cruisers, but still...
