Ortus Depths adventure

My son and I had a funny Ortus Depths experience too--
we had limited time to look and were looking in kind
of the wrong spot on our first try-- (the directions
are fine-- it was our stupidity...) There was a
"mature" heavy-set woman doing her acrobat stretching
routine in the spot where we were sure we needed to
look. Turns out she needed to "stretch" on every lap
of the walk she took and a mighty attractive routine
it was (we got to witness this 5 minute spectacle no
less than a half dozen times!!)--- especially the part
where she was reach-reach-reaching for her toes with
her backside to us. She was suspicious of our
disappearing and reappearing act each lap too-- much
stink eye was given. We ran out of time and had to
give up.

On return the next day, that woman was BACK!!! She
was doing the same routine!!! Thank goodness we
figured out that we were in the wrong spot and
backtracked to the right spot-- only had to witness
three bendovers!!

Kinda cool place though-- stamp is definitely worth
it-- Enjoy your vacation--
