Yesterday, we picked up anchor after listening to the net and sailed off to Salardup, The wind was behind us, so the sailing was just OK. There were only two boats here when we arrived, but 4 or 5 more showed up shortly after that. We went snorkeling to our favorite spot and it did not disappoint. Diane spotted her first lobster, so I had to shoot it! We ended up with 2 lobsters and 1 crab. I saw 4 other female crabs and Steve saw three, but they were all females.

Shortly after getting back, Steve called on the radio and the Kuna's were over at their boat with a bunch of large crabs. We ended up buying them all and then sold 2 to another boat and gave one to Saltwhistle. We had a major seafood feast last night and it was delicious!

Venencio stopped by while everyone was still sleeping, but I woke up Les and Diane so they could look at his stuff. We ended up making a deal for 4 molas and 4 bracelets. Then Steve sent over a guy with Lobsters - we bought 5 for $10 and just now some more guys came buy and we bought 2 lobsters and 4 large conch for $10. SCORE!

Life is good. Our guests are really enjoying themselves.
