My wife and family are still in Florida, they are passively swimming with Manatees today.
I did the swimming with dolphins thing a few years ago...
But it wasn't in the open ocean, or even a very large pool/tank - so I'd like another go in the ocean, get to a faster speed.
I'm not sure how it is going to go. By law in Florida you can't touch a manatee, you can be in the water around them but can't actively interact with them. The way around it is to just float and they, being extremely curious, will just swim up to you. It sounds like a cool experience but it has been so warm lately that they may not be in their winter locations.
We went to the Miami Sea-quarium once. They have a habitat for huge manitees there, so we got to check them out... but not actually in the water with them. I just like to say "habitat for huge manitees".
There is a national park a few minutes from my parent's in Florida. There is a natural hot spring feeding a small tributary, it is where manatees tend to winter. It is really cool to watch them just kind of hang out.

How is your hot water supplied? electric or gas? on-demand?

It's provided by the "hotel" portion of the complex. Boiler I'm guessing.

Latest in the Windows 10 / Edge saga. Now there is no working back button. It's just greyed out, all of the time.

even after a reboot?
Did you install any software recently?

Updated the GeForce drivers, finally. Had to do it manually, the GeForce Experience was never working. That's working now, though. So small improvements.

Nope. They have 1/2 day Xmas eve, then return to work Dec 26 (if not a weekend) and work full on up to and including Dec 31, off for Jan 1, then back to work Jan 2 (again if not weekend).
