Ensenada Grande

07 November 2007

We came into Ensenada Grande on Partida Isla today. Nothing new to report. I went spear fishing with Scott from Idefix today. Kathy ordered me, "Get a big fish!" I knew that if I caught a big fish she just take credit for it. "See that Casey, I told him to do that. It was due to my great management ability." I didn't catch a fish just because of that. Scott caught two, and Salir, his son, caught one. Big deal...

When we came back to the boat Elliott was doing a Phantom Menace Opera on the bow of his boat. He was doing vocals as well as the conducting. I almost started to cry - another Star Wars fan. It's great to have someone to talk to that finally understands me.

Tomorrow we'll go to Los Islotes tomorrow. We'll have to be careful. There's never been a seal island with such vile and villainy. Hey! Elliott will get it
