  1. Finally!! Some really cool beach things to look at. I am so jealous. How come there are so many dried fish intact? I would think something would have eaten it up. Thank you for the pictures.

  2. You would go crazy here with all the beach scrounging you could do. And yes, also with the metal detecting, you nerd.

    I dunno about the fish. I've seen several. Maybe they are jerked by the saltwater?

  3. Oh, the metal detecting! Now I'm really jealous. Think of all the cool stuff I could take home and rid the island of more crap. You are killing me!
