Principally, on the final day [of vacation] we see a fishing boat a half a mile away. We had been like, ‘That is a bit bizarre. We’re in the course of the ocean scuba diving.’ My safety will get out binoculars and sees that they’ve an enormous long-lens digicam. At which level, we return to the seaside and we notice, ‘Okay, so that they bought footage of us in our bikinis, like, I do not need them to make like $100,000 for stalking us.’ So we’re like, ‘Stand up on the bow of the boat.
