For some reason, yesterday morning Jean became a samurai calesthenics instructor - and was making Cashel and me laugh so hard that we were close to drowning at certain points. We had to stop playing the game becaue Cashel was guffawing so loudly he was drinking the entire lake.
"Samurai call this ... the albatross ..." she would intone, and then do some goofy "calesthenics" with her noodle. (We've been all about the noodles. We can't stop talking about them. "Hey - could you grab me a noodle?" "Where's my noodle?" "Do we have any more noodles?")
"Samurai call this ... great dog ..." and Jean swam off away from us, pushing the huge noodle along with her nose.
We played Samurai Calesthenics Instructor for about 45 minutes. It's a game that keeps on giving.

I mean, I know what a noodle is, but now I'm not so sure ....

Posted by: tracey at July 13, 2008 4:40 PMYes! Those thingies!!
Awesome for twisting and turning - you can kneel in the water and float along, you can do "albatross" if you please ... you can even attempt to jumprope. Great fun!!
