I like... and this is why.

Tell me about something you like and why.  It may be very hard to pick one item that you like so you may use combinations.  For example, cake and ice cream, swimming and diving, playing video games and eating junk food, going to the movies and the arcade, hanging out with friends. 

I like ice cream and cake, something like the picture on the left.  I also like adventure though, and I like adventures more so I'm going to write about adventures.

I like adventures because they usually take me to places I have not been to before, they introduce me to experiences that I have not encountered before and they make me do something or complete something that I would not have done if I had not been on the adventure.  For example, my trip to Florida to swim with manatee.

I have been snorkeling before, many times in many different places and continents.  I had usually gone snorkeling in places where the water was clear and deep.  The water where the manatee live is shallow and murky.  I was a little confused at first because I could see so little underwater. I could only see about 8 feet in front of me and made figuring out where I was a little difficult.  I was strange to have to pull my head out of the water in order to get my bearing, but this was an adventure that I would gladly repeat again, murky water included.

There are lots of other likes I have, what is one of yours and why?
