Oh my God! That's creepy and nasty.
Yeah WE, I'm with you. I can barely wade in the shallow end of a pool where I can see and touch the bottom. Lakes, rivers, oceans? Hell no! I nearly died when my husband took me to Mexico and we took a small boat out to an island for snorkeling. Naturally, I don't snorkel so I had to be content to stay in the boat with the guide while we bobbed around on the water. Funny, I don't get seasick though. It was still my own personal hell.
