Gerald and Bob are going to go fishing with Alfred and the girls (Patty, Jane & Sharene) today. Alfred is supposed to be here at , so we need to get up early. (of course, that’s Caribbean time – so in reality it’s between ). Judy has made the sandwiches, and we get chips, snacks water, towels etc together for them. It’s a little cool and cloudy today, so we also send the guys to Paradise to buy a lightweight long sleeved shirt. It can get pretty cool on a boat!
Judy and I stay behind and take in the rest of the sidewalk! We get a really cute shell necklace and earrings. There was so much more that I wanted to get! But I do see some potential Christmas presents! =) We also ran into a guy whose father rents out a house here. Need to make the connection at Barefoot and get some information.
We stop at the school and see Kenney and Kevin – they are putting up a playset brought in by a US Kiwanis Club. They didn't have anything before that. He seemed excited about it, and to see visitors!
Judy and I were going to go to the Tuti Fruiti and have some gelato before we went home, but we were in a hurry and forgot! Argh!
The gang is supposed to be back around , so Judy and I have to hurry and make some potatoes and more slaw. They are bringing the fish home…and we are making the side dishes. If they don’t have fish…we will be eating potatoes, slaw and fruit!
They don’t get back till after 4 and they have several fish! Now they need to be cleaned. Yuck! They are throwing the fish parts in the water and the gulls and frigates are diving in the water for the pieces and catching them in mid air!! Those that don’t land on my head or slop on my glasses anyway! Wow! Splat! EWWWWW! Thanks Kenney! (video's will be posted)

Another boat of local guys drive by looking for bait fish (the little minnows). Alfred tells them there are a bunch by the dock. They get out and cast a net near the shore and pull out an entire
