The men got into fishing. I didn't realize there were catfish in the ocean but that's about all they caught. They got pretty excited about their catches none the less!
We all went snorkeling in St. Joe's Bay and tried our hand at catching scallops. We saw lots of cool fish, urchins, stingrays, and stuff. The bay was really shallow and you could just walk straight out into it. The water was only about knee deep.
Here's a scallop.
Here's our catch. After Matthew cleaned them we had about 1/2 cup of meat! I'm glad we did't have to depend on our fishing skills to eat!
Here's Mathias sporting his sun glasses. He thought he was pretty cool wearing them on his head.
Somehow Mathias ended up with a super-sized Blow Pop for the ride home (Thanks Uncle Matthew!) It would have taken him days to eat the thing. Thankfully he got tired of it after about an hour but not before he managed to get everything sticky. When we stopped for lunch we found a wad of gum stuck, more like fused to his neck. Jamie's solution was to stick a napkin over it. So here is Mathias hours later with the napkin STILL stuck to his neck. I think the gum stuck for another week!
