  1. She was stung by a lion fish 2 days ago. Still venomous at that point. Allergic reaction possible. College was stung by one still alive. Day 1 to six week progression shown here.
  2. Next we went to this lion fish place. They hunt, buy, cook, serve, and make jewelry out of lion fish. I already knew this story from Jeff Corwin but lionfish aren’t from this area. I want to say they were brought in from Africa or something for aquariums. They ate all of the expensive fish in those tanks and people threw them in the ocean. They reproduced and now it’s a problem because tbey eat the fish that maintain the coral reefs. So you can totally kill and eat alll the lion fish you want. They’re a nuisance in the Caribbean.
  3. We went in one of the shops. Prices seemed high. One guy was asking about a magnet and was quoted $10. Then he asked about a license plate and was told $30. He said he’d be willing to pay $15. I guess they came to an agreement because at the next venue, he had his license plate.

  10. I was wondering if they put carnival in the name to trick cruisers and as soon as I took the pic a guy in front of me said “look Carnival casino!”
  11. They do have these markers along the port area for a self guided walking tour I guess.
