Taking the sting away: Erik Wijnant, 38, of Belgium, soaks his feet as his 5-year-old daughter, Gwenny, cheers him up by imitating a fish in Fort DeSoto, Fla. Wijnant got stung on his feet by a sting ray three times, as he ran toward his 12-year-old son, Bryan, who was also stung. The beach was closed after about 60 visitors reported getting stung.
