Got up at 9 to make the 9:30 breakfast cutoff. After breakfast, Jasper and I went to the Atlanta Aquarium. It has the largest tank in the world (I think), to house a whale shark. The whale shark is HUGE. I think Jasper got a picture of it also. In addition to the whale shark there were other cool sea critters, like beluga whales, asian otters, rockfish, cuttlefish etc. I had never seen beluga whales before; they were pretty amazing. Almost as big as the whale shark, and playful like a dolphin.
After the aquarium we all packed into the car and drove a few hours till Augusta.
In Augusta, I almost landed a kickflip for the first time. I landed it, but slipped out from under the board almost as soon as my feet touched. Japser hurt his foot the day before skateboarding, so he couldn’t skate today.

My fav is you chewing on that shark meat or maybe saying,”Guess what live little critter I got here inside my chops” Guess wrong and I is gonna swallow whole and wiggling!!” Yuk! Great scuba diving off the coast of Mendocino. You can get fresh abalone, shell it on the beach, soften it with a meat hammer, fry it in a castiron skillet in a bit of oil and best darn meat you ever ate! Been six years since the last time I went diving with a buddy of mine. I think you would love it.
