Christmas Card arrives!!

Miracle - we received a Christmas card today.

Reality Garden

Have gone Bahamian - which means container gardening. Arugula is the only crop that grew in my garden. Transferred plants to containers we find on the beach.

Barracuda - Terry's catch of the day!

This thing was huge and no net to bring it in! The teeth were amazing. Terry fought it for quite a while. We took quite a few photos then released it unharmed to the sea. Afterwards Terry and Chris caught some nice Bar Jack - no more barracudas.

Lobster - the one that didn't get away!

I was out snorkeling and noticed this lovely lobster lurking in a chamber under the coral, next to two huge stag horn corals. Chris was already back at the beach. I yelled "Lobster!" the call brought him quickly back to the reef, I pointed out the hole, by then the lobster was hiding. Chris patiently waited, when the lobster appeared again, zing, he was shot with Chris' pole spear!
We already had seven small tails planned for dinner, this big one was a huge bonus - there was lots of leftover lobster.
