I Took the Ninjas to the Park

(Towards the end of our excursion in the park, I used a little known Kung Fu move and zipped away from the Littlest Ninja. I ran straight for the lake where two newcomer swans were getting a bit too friendly with the Middle Ninja--much less reserved than our old white swans. I dove headlong into the lake and swam furiously after the lead swan. I was just going to explain the FINER POINTS of park ETIQUETTE to those two swans, but the Spokeswoman started spaz-ing out and hyperventilating on shore, so, I had to turn around in the middle of the lake (just when I almost had a mouthful of one of them!) and swim back to shore. I swear, I think the Spokeswoman was about to jump in the lake after me. I KNEW she meant business, because she wasn't even taking pictures anymore. Some people are just overly excitable...and CRABBY. )
