Into the sea ...

At last , the bus was boarded with a bunch of British Cricketers .
However , an unexpected issue faced them . There was no place for Alastair on the small bus .
Every seat was occupied. Ian and James were at the front next to the driver .
There was a bit of space near Stuart but he had placed his hurt leg there which had been hurt due to that GREAT fall on the grumpy bowler .
Alastair eyed each and every corner of the bus. No space .

" The bus driver isn't allowing Mr .Red Cheek to sit here ", James mocked him .
"You made it red ", informed the captain .
"Alastair you may sit on my lap ", Ian offered .
James rolled his eyes on him with disbelief . "Ian "?
"There is no other choice , Jimmy ", Ian replied . "Come on , Cooky ".
Hence , Alastair sat on Ian's lap .

"The whole public can see you ", James warned the captain .
Alastair just swayed his head from side to side , never really listening to what James had said .
Ian did not complain about Alastair sitting on his lap , so for the time being everything was fine .

They traveled for about half an hour until they reached the beach . Now , all was left was to get on the boat and go to the middle of sea . However , first they needed to collect life jackets and goggles from there . And so they did .

They got on a small , low boat and after moving a little distance they got on a bigger boat since the smaller boat could not go further into the sea , it could sink .
Hence , eleven men were seated on a big boat.
"How do you know where the middle of the sea is ? Have you drawn a line of symmetry there "? Inquired Joe to the boat rider who was busy clutching at the motor .
" There is a huge rock there and beside that rock there is an Island to the left ", replied the boat -man .

They had to travel for half an hour until they reached the middle of the sea .
"Alright ", announced the boatman . " As you can see , around you there is a motor boat and speed boat which you can sit on. There is a cliff there for cliff diving . Connected to our boat is the life guards' boat to ensure safety ".

The cricketers nodded their head . This was going to be a great load of fun and everyone was excited to give everything a try.
