Spent the day having adventures on the high seas.

We went out through the Homosassa River into the Gulf of Mexico and caught the end of the Florida scalloping season. This involves snorkelling in 7 foot of water and diving down to retrieve the tasty little suckers from amongst the weed. They make a funny squeaking noise and open and close their shells in a defiant move to nip your fingers. The water temperature was 32 degrees celsius/90 fahrenheit so was like a big, moving, salty bath.

My husband surfaced with a great haul of scallops, while my actual contribution to dinner was minimal, so I'm glad that in a marriage all assets are divided equally.
