Catch of the Day

Back from the Red Sea w/ some fish. This was our boat that we stayed on for three days and two nights. I've never... slept on a boat in the Red Sea, yes I have. I went swimming the first day and saw some fish and coral. We caught quite a bit the first day. I caught about 4 decent sized guys. I was proud. So proud I took a picture of the first fish I had ever caught. I also caught about 25 little guys about 4-5 inches long. We used those suckers for bait for the bigger guys. I caught all of the little ones w/o a pole. Line and hand. It was great. I felt as if I were a true hunter. Then I went inside the boat and had me a coke and some chips. Now our boat had a tape player. I should had brought all my old Carman tapes but I forgot, I must had left them in Cairo. So, we got to listen to Egyptian music for three days. Yeah, I was quite cross-culturally sensitive, but I'd rather chase the Hebrews into the Red Sea than be sensitive again. To the left, is my proud picture of the first fish I have ever caught. He tasted mighty good, too. The second and third day of fishing were quite windy, so our fishing didn't compete w/ the first day. It was a good experience, though. We saw some dolphins one day; that was super.
I'm getting to know the area better and still working on language. Getting to know people and all. I got my visas a couple of days ago for the summer, so I'm legal.
