Good evening friends, I bet most of you are glad it’s Friday!  We had a crazy thing happen at work today.  A few of my friends decided to go fishing at 2:00 in our lagoon equipped with only a piece of fishing line, a hook and a little fish for bait.  Well they ended up catching a big snapper, like over 24 inches and were pulling it in when all of a sudden a monster sized barracuda grabbed the snapper and completely bit it in half taking half the fish in it’s mouth in one big bite!  So they now had the head and half the body on a hook so they figured lets throw this back in and catch the barracuda!  No sooner did they get that head in the water and the barracuda attacked again, this time cutting the line and taking the fish, from what I heard he was big, well over a meter in length!  Cool huh? 
 
By request here’s another photo from Carnival!  This was a group of locals dressed as African animals, their costumes were so great! 
 
I am doing a night dive at Pier Baai tomorrow night at 8:00, meet at the Dive Bus Hut!!  I am tired and headed to bed my friends, till tomorrow, Barry
