Well;
Summer Trauma more or less describes what we do year round over here!  
Alcohol, tourists, no-body-knows-me-i-can-do-anything, sun, beach,  
party until all hours. All this makes an interesting combination, some  
falls from balconies, specially around spring break (would that count  
as summer trauma?) intoxications,(not quite trauma but interesting  
nevertheless) diving decompressions, crocodile bites, skiing and  
parachuting accidents, boat injuries, ah! do not foget motorcycles/ 
mopeds, specially if you are yong and showing off!
I think that about covers it... not all though  ;)
