Fire coral -vs- Jessi

What should you do if you are windsurfing and fall into fire coral? If you are Jessi, you get back up on the board, fall in the coral a few more times, finish up your hour rental, then show your parents the flaming red welts and say "Ow, this stings, a lot!


Why ruin enjoyment of perfect sailing conditions when you can go to the clinic for antihistamines, numbing cream, and broken coral extraction later. I asked why she kept sailing after getting stung and she said "I thought the pain would just go away." My little trooper.


She is awesome on a wind surfing board. She says she hopes she retains a scar so she can always remember sail boarding in Bali.
