I motored to Seasplash and hung in front of the bar for a bit with young server named Romaine (nice kid), then I met a boardie at the bar, a long-time lurker from Canada named John. We would meet up nearly every morning, me with my spear gun and him with his morning cup of coffee.
Once we hit the ocean, it was a bit choppy, and at one point the tip of my spear fell off. I tried to grab it from the ocean floor but pushed it against a rock. Then I couldn’t find it anymore – I was frantic – but Roger came to the rescue and miraculously retrieved it a few moments later.
While he was out there looking for my spear tip – had he not found it, the gun essentially would be worthless cause there is no way you can find a replacement here – he also managed to catch an octopus.
I had lobster at Seastar Inn for lunch and chicken at Bentley’s for dinner. Marko joined at Bentley’s, and we spent a good three hours talking and laughing the evening away.
I spent the rest of night doing stuff you can't report on the Net, lol.
It was a great day.

Seasplash is nice but like most hotels on the beach it's quiet. Not sure about live music. They're on their third manager of the year, and they lost my green raft after about one week -- I had tipped two of the workers a total of 10 dollars to look after it -- but I would give the place an A-minus.
