Fishing and fish

Today we had breakfast and decided whether to go on today's excursion - hand line fishing. The last time we did hand line fishing (in Fiji) we both got motion sickness from the rocking. However, we decided to give it a crack (after some travel sickness medicine). There were 5 guests and we went to about 4 spots to try our luck. The guests caught 4 fish (two for B, none for me), and Thomas (resort boatie) caught about 5 or 6. Thomas was impressed with B's ability to "catch Fiji" - he hauled up two large pieces of coral during the trip. When we got back we had lunch; a fish salad/veggie mix with beans, potato, olives and lettuce and some fruit to finish. I then lost 1-2 hours to a nap before doing some reading before our shell finding lap of the island (which included a glorious sunset). We then headed to dinner - we both had Kokoda (a local dish of fish marinated in lime juice, then served with coconut milk, capsicum and onions), then B had chicken with rice and veggies and I had panko crumbed fish with veggies and dalo (a local root crop). We then had lumberjack cake to finish.Read more
