Day 5

We spent this morning relaxing on the beach. We decided to walk towards the pier. At one point in our leisure stroll, Scott and I realized that Andrew had stopped walking. He had entered his world of deep thought (oblivious to the world around him). He was marking how far the tide came up on the shore. Scott sat down on a chair and waited for him to finish his analysis. It was a memory that will be forever filed away in our minds.

Olivia took to the task of building her "own" castle.

That afternoon, we headed to the pier for a little ocean fishing.

Scott's first official ocean catch

They spent an incredible amount of time catching small pinfish.  Andrew nonchalantly caught something, and Scott immediately stated, "You caught another pinfish!"  Andrew and I quickly realized that it was NOT another pinfish.  Andrew started screaming, "I caught a shark!  I caught a shark!"  This quickly attracted the attention of other fishermen and sight seers.  I am happy to report that he caught a remora, otherwise known as a shark sucker.  Good news...Andrew didn't catch a shark.  Bad news...there was a shark swimming around the pier.

Scott and Andrew returned to the pier that evening after dinner.  They watched as fellow tourist caught a 50 pound stingray.  Andrew also watched as someone reeled in a small shark.
