The giant turtle trampoline

Admit it.  You want to try it.

I don't know who the brilliant person was that thought of making trampolines that float on the water was, but I'm in awe. 

We live at the shore, and I can only imagine how much fun my friends and I would have had with this when we were teenagers.  This would have been awesome in the bay, and a boat could have easily towed it from the lagoons or a dock.

This particular item is the Island Hopper Turtle Jump 15 Foot Water Trampoline.  It is fairly pricey at $2,399.00.  However, there is a smaller, similar product that is a more "reasonable" price (how reasonable is it really to purchase a giant turtle water trampoline... I can't really say... I am assuming if you are in the market for this sort of thing you aren't pinching pennies).  You can pick up the Island Hopper Turtle Hop 11 Foot Bounce Platform for $589.99, which is considerably less and probably not substantially less awesome or fun.

Today was our first warm day of the season, and seeing this makes me excited to start shopping for some summer "outdoorsy" toys.

Happy shopping, friends!
