So the end of the beach trip was just as fun as the begining minus any key problems. :) We did end up having pizza and watching some seasons of taped shows on Friday night. It was a nice quiet night in and we avoided all the crowds. When Daniel was picking up the pizza, I went for a nice run during sunset. It was so pretty out. Earlier when Daniel went fishing, he caught a scate and some whiting. Nothing good enough to keep. We were hoping to catch some shark like we have before. :) We found this really great recipe and are dying to try it out. Its a fish stew with tomatos. We of course LOVE LOVE LOVE tomatos and the fish would be an added bonus.
Saturday we got up and went to the beach. Before heading to the beach though, Daniel and I went for a quick run up to the pier where Randy and Jean were fishing. It was a quiet day there since the water was warm but we did see this HUGE band of fish that came across. They were on the small side but some were caught and let go.
It was our longest day outside. Both of us got a little toasted. We think it was the spray sunscrean. It happened to be windy and maybe it was user error due to the wind. Regardless.. it wasn't unbearable, just a bit pink. At night, we went to a new resturant (one we havnt been to) and had a nice time outside on the waterway eatting until it started to rain. We brought the food in and then left for barefoot landing to feed the ducks and fish bread. When we first got there, we found some fish but they were only about 8 inchs long. I was wondering what happened to all the other fish. After some walking around, we found the huge catfish. They were at least 2-3 feet long and boy did they like the bread. The turtles of course also got some bread. We didnt want to exclude them!
Sunday was a nice day as well. Daniel got up really early to go fishing and I went to get a newspaper and then for a run. Unfortunatly Daniel only caught some pin fish and some eel. We then laid out for a bit and packed lunch. My parents came down to the beach on Sunday morning and met us at the beach for a lunch there. But it was short lived, we had to get back in and clean up and head out. So off we were and they were off to thier condo down the road.
On our way back home, we stopped at cookout for a couple milkshakes... the last of the junk food.... Now back to the grind. :) I must say, I did miss work and the cats.
