The guy just popped up out of nowhere and he put on a show for us, expecting that we will give him something to eat. So, it's not bad enough that we have to feed beggars at the side of the roads, as now we have them at the harbor as well.
We travelled to one of our local harbors on impulse, just to see if anything has changed there since our last visit a few months ago.
There are several harbors along our coastline, and each one has a different character. There are still one or two that we have not visited yet, but as soon as the petrol prices drop then we will make a plan to also get them off our list. A lot of work is in progress here, to get the province ready for the December holiday period, as thousands stream in from inland and tourists also arrive from other countries.
Let me show you what happened here.
Helooo cousins, he said, welcome to my place and I hope that you brought me some fish.
He smiled and said; Wait until you see my show, then your wife will empty her bag of fish for me.
How's this for an upside down, inside out move? Any fish yet?
I ignored him and took another shot of the harbor, as the cloud at the back was slowly moving over towards the left.
Hey, hey, hey buddy, can you see that I am still here and waiting?
Please, pretty please give me a fish.
You can see that I love you and that's why I am putting up a special show for you.
No, nothing? No reward? Even though I declared my love for you?
Well in that case, you are a cheapskate and I take back all that I said, as I didn't love you to start with. I am out of here, you schmuck!
That cloud reached a further point towards the left, and I loved how the mountain in the background was covered in cloud.
I think that this guy gets fish when the fishing trawlers come in with their catch of the day, as he was very friendly. But sadly we had not expected to see him, else we would have bought some sardines from the fishermen for him. At the charity we get many scam artists that will say anything to try to get money out of us. They refuse food donations, as many of them need money for their next drug fix. However, some are really needy and one has to have discernment to help the worthy cases, and to refuse the scammers.
This was a wonderful occasion and we loved to see how that seal swam around in the harbor.
I hope you have enjoyed the pictures and the story.
And That's All Friends.
