Hey everyone it's Jenn and Ryan!

For yesterday, today, and tomorrow we separated into three different groups.  One group goes to the Pratt Museum, one group goes fishing, and one group has the day off (yay!).

The Pratt Museum is a natural history museum that gives details about the wildlife and plant life of the Kenai Peninsula.  It sounds like fun, but Jenn and I didn't do that today.  We're told there's a lot of "stuffed animals."

The day off group is responsible for cooking the dinners, and tonight we had a traditional Italian cuisine.  Very delicious, but still boring.

On to the fun stuff.

Today we went FISHING.  Serious fishing.  Our group consisted of Dr. Bezotte, Alexis, Reese, Heather, and obviously ourselves!  Altogether we caught a whopping 33 fish.  There is a limit on how much Halibut we were allowed to catch due to fishing laws, and we were only allowed two each.  We also caught 21 Cod, which there is no limit for.  They are supposed be especially delicious this time of year, and we have had fish the last two nights with dinner.

Yesterday they only managed to catch one cod, one salmon, and one halibut.  We were met with a little more luck today, but never had a chance to fish for salmon due to the REALLY HIGH waves.

For me, Ryan, it was incredibly fun watching Heather reel in fish after fish.  She is small but fierce.  She caught something today that completely snapped the line as she struggled to hold on.  We are still all very curious what was on the line.  I am sure by the time we get back we will have an incredible fish tale to tell all you lovely folks back home.

For me, Jenn, I especially enjoyed how we reeled in the fish very frequently. It seemed as though someone caught another fish every ten minutes. As we sat out there rocking, laughing, and talking, I felt that this may have been one of the highlights of the trip for us all and we wish the fishing group tomorrow just as much luck as we had today.

That's it for today.  Stilts says "peace out."
