点评:You’ve never had too many birthdays to try something new…my hubs Jim had a birthday this week so I invited him to an “outing” yesterday with instructions, “Bring your swimsuit, sandals and sunglasses.”
We rented a jet ski for a half day on Lake Jocassee SC. Big, big fun!
Rental process was easy peasy, and a crew member met us at the appointed time at the dock. (We were given complete instructions, map to download, including where to park, beforehand). Jason gave us complete safety and operating instructions, PFD’s, and off we went! The lake has crystal clear water surrounded by the Jocassee Gorges and mountains where we encountered rock walls, small spits of sandy landings and still blooming mountain laurel. The waterfalls were the highlight of finds. Jim and I ride his motorcycle 2-up so he was a natural on the watercraft. We were amazed at the size of the lake, lack of crowds and its pristine beauty. He said several times, “This is such a blast and beautiful at the same time!” I’d say it was a day to remember.

我们在南卡罗来纳州的乔卡西湖租了半天水上摩托艇。真是太好玩了!
租车过程非常简单,工作人员在约定的时间在码头接我们。(他们事先给了我们完整的操作说明,还有可以下载的地图,包括停车地点)。杰森给我们讲解了所有安全和操作注意事项,并分发了救生衣,然后我们就出发了!湖水清澈见底,四周环绕着乔卡西峡谷和群山,我们一路上看到了岩壁、小小的沙洲和依然盛开的山月桂。瀑布是此行最大的亮点。吉姆和我经常骑着他的双人摩托车,所以他开水上摩托艇简直是得心应手。我们惊叹于湖泊的广阔、人烟稀少以及它原始的美景。他好几次都说:“这真是太刺激了,而且景色美极了!”我想说,这是值得铭记的一天。
