Memorial Day

After a weekend dedicated to Typhoon Songda (Saturday anticipating/storm, Sunday cleanup), Monday we headed out to see the effects of the storm on our favorite beach and to maybe find some washed up treasures. 


Somehow this greenhouse survived the storm, but the sugar cane in front doesn't look so good...



This is the entrance to our special beach looking a little shell shocked.

It was a gorgeous day with clear skies and very little humidity.  The waters around have been incredible colors because of the churned up water and our beach was no disappointment.

The snorkeling was excellent, except for this little fish...

Cannon had been wanting to try spear fishing and believe it or not, he stabbed this little guy.  After which, Stevie decided to try his hand on some slightly larger fish but had no luck.  Cannon was either incredibly lucky, or he is a born spear fisherman!

Later, Emmy and I walked down the beach to find washed up treasures, but decided the only things the storm washed in were fish and garbage.  There were lots of little dead fish way up the beach so the waters must have been really high.  In addition to the dead fish, we also found a dead sea snake, dead bird, naked man (alive, not dead) and this cool box fish!

This huge rope had been thrown up onto the rock by the waves.

Emmy, looking cute.

Lundy wasn't feeling too good so he took a nap on the beach.  Looks pretty comfy if you ask me!
