"Whats this now, you want me to go to an aquarium with you kids on Saturday. That sounds nice. Yes, yes I think that I would like that."

"I will admit that in my youth we liked to joke around and take fishing poles to aquariums. It was all in good fun of course but they really didn't like it. We would make the staff keep up with them until we ccould go fishing later. That is the fun we had as kids."

"I personally love the water my entire life. My sister was less fond of it but she enjoyed it all the same."

"Now Coop, he loved the water as much as I did that is for sure. In his final days he demanded with that devils grin of his 'to go see one that we did all those years ago' though I must admit that I knew what he was trying to do, to show his family one last smile on his face."

I told them to get up, that we were going to enjoy one last day and there was nothing that anyone could do about it. When they tried to argue I turned to the kids and said that they were going to get to play in the water. The parents never stood a chance.

At this point Coop was in a wheel chair and needed help to get around well I was walking with the cane we made long ago so I shucked-and-jieved his son into doing it.

A word of advise, never underestimate old people, we have been around longer and know all the tricks to get our way.

We fell into our old routine of joking around. His son was still mad as a march hare, but we were enjoying ourselves. So were his grandkids! That they got to spend one last time with granddad and see us laugh at the most stupid things was worth it for them.

We came across a tank filled with Great White Sharks and the kids were horrified that such things could live in the water. I told them of the time that we dived with them and were pulled around underwater by the sharks, and then Coop says, of all things, that we used to fight Tiger Sharks for fun.

I have to admit that the little ones were impressed for all it was unture so I told them the 'tale' of the time we were lost at see with nothing to eat so we trained Bull sharks to let us ride them and became pirates for a time.

After that even Coops son could not help but start laughing when we were asked if that was true.
