How Do You Like These Steemy Beach Flags? (Almost) Getting Our Charity Event Started 💕
Unforeseen surprises are the rule in science, not the exception. Remember: stuff happens. - Leonard Susskind
You can tell, Leonard!
When we picked up the beach flags for our next week's charity event a couple of hours ago, our hearts stopped beating for a second. While we noticed that the quality of the material and colouring was absolutely outstanding, we suddenly discovered a spelling mistake in one of the logos, and we have no idea how it got there.
The word platform in the fundition logo was changed to plataform which is actually a mix of the English word platform and the Spanish translation plataforma. Or maybe the designer was eating a banana (Spanish: plátano) while editing the logo?
In the meantime some related statements on discord:
A crowdfunding banana - @free999enigma
A blockchain based crowdfunding banana - @surfermarly
At least it's not a blockchain based on bananas 😄 - @free999enigma
...
Every time you find humor in a complicated situation, you win!
Whatever happened in that designer office, we'll need to print the @fundition banner again. This time we'll do it without the bananas.
Most importantly: The kids swim training will take place as scheduled!

Ready when you are!
Independently of the trouble behind the scenes, our future swimmers are already in their starting blocks!
Today we paid all our partners, so on Monday 23th we'll be rocking the aqua&sports center Lanzarote for the first time.
There is only one point in the schedule that needs to be changed: As a consequence of the belated banner production, the photo-call for the media report, that was originally planned for next Wednesday will be postponed to the 1st of August.
Remember: Stuff happens. It's the way how you deal with it, that matters.
We'll keep you posted!

You guys rock! I'm definitely prepared to make the world a better place. And you, too, as far as I can see :-))
The banners look great. No one will notice the insignificant type-o. The kids are definitely not going to notice the slight imperfection, because they are going to be having the time of their lives! Keep up the good work and never lose your smile. I think I am going to eat a banana then go surfing...enjoy
Haha eating a banana before surfing is never a bad idea! :-)
Thanks for your encouragement! Luckily the new banner won't be very expensive since we can use the already existing structure. Since it was my fault to confirm the wrong design, I'll be paying this one from my pocket :-)
I won't surf today since winds are too strong again. That's why I'll be having a windsurf class tomorrow - yay!
Well done :) and keep up the great work.
Thanks a lot for your kindness!
Good job, they look really great! 👏
Thank you @betterthanhome! :-)
a very beautiful flag.
I really like the three flags.
Great job you doing
God bless your efforts
