RE: Some interesting fishing photos.

Looks like you had an interesting day at the beach :-) I am really pleased that the ray was returned to the ocean to live out its life. I have dived with a number of different types of Rays over the years in Australia and South Africa and they are incredibly graceful and curious creatures. Truly gorgeous. I once dived in a oceanarium tank with rays too... one was so inquisitive it grabbed my arm by the end of the wetsuit...and didn't want to let go. I got such a fright that I accidentally bopped it on the nose. I felt so so bad afterward. I didn't hit it hard, it was more of a light reflex reaction to try to shake him off. As for the Kob... I'm vegan myself, so forgive me if I'm not so much of a fan of fishing, but I appreciate the effort you have put into your post and with the pics and the variety of discussion, it gave a good overall sense of a relaxed day at the coast. Thank you for sharing in the vyb community.

Oh again? Thank you for the compliment and one thing that I have never done is to dive.
I don't mean ordinary dives when swimming, as I love heights and went off many cliffs in my time, but I even struggle with these Covid masks as I have claustrophobia.
As a young child, my mother's boyfriend blew red pepper into our mouths and he locked me and my sister into one of those hallway broom cupboards for many hours. One couldn't sit in the cupboard as it was a flat cupboard and it was dark inside.
Now I don't have trouble with the dark of the night, but I cannot stand confined dark places. Never been underground either and I don't know why I am telling you all of this.

You really didn't mean to hurt the ray, as it was only a reflex action and I am sure that the ray would want you to forget about it.

Btw, we live exactly in the middle of the mountains and the sea. 6 kilometers either way, so I have both of my loves close by.

The thanks for sharing must really go to @calumam, as he asked me if he could test my post in the #vyb community. I only use the #vyb tag on my posts.

It sounds like you went through an awful period in your childhood. I am so sorry to hear this. Sending you big hugs. I completely understand your aversion to anything that brings back memories of those dark days for you. Thank you for sharing something so close to your heart. It sounds like you now live in the best place ever, between the two most restorative natural wonders of the world. My Mom always loved the ocean, as do my sister and brother. It is their happy place. I also love the ocean, but the mountains are my happy place 💗I look forward to reading more of your posts in the Vybrainium community. !PIZZA !ALIVE

Something that I once shared with another on here, but if you ask me who and what it it was about, I honestly cannot tell you. I have something like 40,000 or there about replies on my profile over the years and I can maybe remember the last 5 🤣

Oh yes thank you, we now live in the right place between the two, but it is very difficult for me to choose. But I don't have to as 5% of my posts are charity posts and 20% is ocean, the rest are all nature including mountains. So the results tell me that I also prefer the mountains.

I have done an ocean test post today in #vyb and have to wait to see the results.
Then I will do a mountain post test post and we will again compare.

May you and yours have a Merry Christmas.

Looking forward to reading them 😊And thank you for the wishes 🙏May you also have a lovely Christmas with your loved ones !PIZZA !ALIVE
