LIVE from Radiance Apr. 21, 2023 - The Panama Canal - Canal au Niveau de la Mer

[twangster]

While the crew vs. guest volleyball game was playing out on deck 11, the bird vs. fish game was playing out in the Pacific Ocean.

 

The object of today's game was for the birds to kiss a fish.

 

Team fish today consisted of the flying fish team.  These little guys:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fish win the game when they make it back into the ocean without being kissed by a bird.

Dh says they are Masked Booties.  If face is full brown then Brown Booty.  He also wants to know what setting your camera was set at.  Also GPS location?

I think they are Boobies, not Booties.😁

These two birds were on patrol together.

 

 

All a sudden the one on the right did a dive into the ocean.

 

 

He must have been hot and wanted to cool off.

 

 

 

 

Turns out he was pretty eager to win the game.

 

 

Success!  He kissed a fish!

 

 

Wait a minute, he's not playing fair.

 

 

 

He's eating the other team!

 

 

With his tail feathers still draggin in the ocean that fish was done like dinner.

 

 

Eager to be the best on his team, the bird went back on patrol skimming the ocean.

With the rules of the game wide open for interpretation, a pod of dolphins got in on the action.

"Dude!  Right in front of you!"

 

 

"You missed!"

 

 

"Seriously dude I could have gotten that blindfolded"

 

 

 

[twangster]

"Not today satan!"

 

 

"Ugh.  I missed!"

 

 

"No fish for you!"

 

[twangster]

"That human is pretty big but his man satchel smells pretty good"

What really would have been nice to compliment the meat was a large crisp salad 🥗 imho. 

You can always ask for one, I'd Bet $$ they would accommodate.

I lied earlier.   The gyro pool tables are gyroing.   Slight, subtle motion tonight and the gyro tables are compensating.
