Today, the price I paid to go on a kayaking trip in the sea was nothing compared to the price that my foot paid when it inadvertently stepped on a sea urchin halfway into the water. FML

As a child, I accidentally stepped on a sea urchin in a shallow tide pool at the beach. Then I "accidentally" picked up a nearby stick and proceeded to turn the urchin into a sand dollar ...

i'm so sorry that happened. your safety is definitely more important than that kayaking trip, though.

That sounds very painful but for future reference you should always wear water shoes when there are urchins in the water, as a precaution. I hope you managed to have some fun after you got your foot taken care of!
