Almost killer stingray

Our first full day on the boat was last Monday.  Our port of call was Nassau.  We (Jeff, Maddie, Aunt Carol, Uncle Joel and I) got into a taxi and headed to Atlantis.  Maddie and I walked around the grounds and shops while the others spent some time in the casino.  After lunch we headed back to Nassau to visit the shops.  I had shown Jeff a pink sapphire band that I wanted before we ever went on the trip.  I  have seen it online just not had a moment when I am in the city to see it in person.  Maddie's birthstone is sapphire (which I love) and have said since she was born that I would like something with her birthstone.  I used to wear a necklace every day until it became a way of Maddie to choke me, earrings are hard too since she like to tug at those too, I have never been a bracelet person (I am a klutz and get them caught on things) so a ring is what I want.  I thought a pink sapphire instead of the normal blue to symbolize what we are going threw.  I am not a ribbon person so I thought this would be my understated symbol. 

Now to the title:
After running my napping child, husband, Aunt and Uncle around Nassau to look for the impossible we headed back to the boat.  Maddie woke up from her nap and I decided to take her to Nemo's Reef.  Which was a splash pool for babies on the boat.  There where spouts of water that came out of the floor and mist from the ceiling and all sorts of squirty water things.  It was very cute.  Then there was a stingray slide.  I figured what the heck it is in the baby section of this I will put Maddie on my lap and go down with her.  I made sure I ducked I didnt want to hit my head.  There was this black rubber mat at the end of the slide.  On the way down Maddie loved it and yelled "WEEEEEEEEE" I made the quick decision to try and stop myself on the way down so I could stand up at the end and not land on my butt, I was worried about my tail bone.  The slide though small was fast and as I stood, my momentum was still going and I flew off to the left (about 10 feet) with Maddie on my arms.  All I could think of is, do not hurt her, so I held her up so she would not hit anything.  Jeff has the entire thing on video.  Emma and Timmy came running along with some cast members (they are not called crew) from Disney.  I was fine and kept saying it.  Jeff knew when I laughed and said I was okay that I was, we have been together long enough that he knows (though does not understand) that I am a KLUTZ.   I made sure Maddie was okay, who wanted to go down the almost killer stingray slide again.  We did not, however I decided not to press my luck, I did not go on any other slides the entire trip.
