With the Vegetarian Festival and Visa runs consuming most of Jackie's and my time we've not had as much time to explore the tide pools. Jackie however has turned the kitchen table into a arts and crafts zone with tons of the shells that we have picked up getting several layers of clear nail-polish in order to protect them and help them maintain their colors. Here are the latest pictures from our tide pools:
(We were unsure if this was a sea snake or a white eel)
(Didn't have it in me to force this awesome looking clam from it's home and slay it in hopes of it having a pearl, though it's probably a lot more likely to have one then where I have been looking)
A bit of beautiful living coral. The tips of this type of coral comes in a variety of colors. So far we've seen green, yellow, white, and my favorite lavender.
Dead horseshoe crab. Did you know that they collect horseshoe crabs, harvest their blood, and release them back into the wild? And all of this is done for the sake of medicine?
