Ha! Thanks Dev. It was most definitely not a dry heat. 
It's a lot more work than one might think to shoot out of a chopper. Try leaning out your car window at 75. Then try it at 110 or 120.
The wind is a constant issue- my right hand is always cramped afterwards from holding on tight to the camera and trying to hold steady against the wind.
The second camera is bouncing around from wind, and in a Jet Ranger with a great pilot like Mike making hard turns, you are constantly working just to stay upright and in the doorway.
Plus, you are constantly fighting against the seat belt- twisting and bending to get an angle while the whole time the wind is beating the sh!t out of you.
Not a complaint, mind you- just my experience.

Well, I think you balanced things out quite a bit at the pool parties....where it appeared most of the shots were non-boat related....
Will the shot of Kenny and the girl overlooking the bar make it to this thread??

Here's the arrival in to Harbor Walk for lunch.
One thing I noticed about this run, and it may be just because of the sheer number of boats...
but I was impressed by the number of boats that were packed with people.
They came to play in Texas...
