WOW ! What a wonderful life experience you had.... not the old lady.... I would give my right ___ for such an experience. However, saying that, I went scuba diving with a group a long time ago off Kauai and there was this humungous female turtle over 6 foot, and they called it TRIPOD, because a shark might have eaten its back flipper. Anyway, it came up to me and I got real close to its face. The video lady was taking live feed while the turtle and I were gawking at each other up close. The turtle kept sweeping the side of its head with its right flipper - 3 times, then as we were now 6 inches face to face, the turtle made a quick bite at my long hair over my brow that may have mimicked sea weed. Vidal Sassoon would cringe. So I got gummed by a 6 foot lady sea turtle. No ride.... as the camera lady was screaming at me "Don't do Dat, dont do dat. underwater. { Later, I believe that the turtle was wanting me to gently scratch her neck like you do a dog, but we all know the Thought Police would SCREAM ! }

What an amazing experience!

I'm sure your doctor has told you NOT to listen to the voices in your head.
