Me, @reyarobo and my other friends decided to go to seashell hunting because it's sunday and, we have no work. And also because it's low tide -0.1m.

So I woke early at 5:30am together with my son Brielle. Mactan island is known of abundance of sea creatures especially sea foods. There we can find different sea creatures like seashells, crabs, sea urchin, starfish, jelly fish and many more.

We're not only the group who had seashell hunting but there are also lots of mactanganons. While others are on picnic.
And after 2 hours of seashell hunting, we gather together and prepare sea urchins and sea cucumber for our breakfast and began to eat.

Then after eating we decided to go home. My wife clean the seashells and prepare for our lunch and then we eat together with my family. Some tells that seashells are garbage collector of the sea and not good to eat, but we don't believe them because there are also others tells and for us that it's good for the health. I hope you like seashells too.

After lunch we decided to clean our sorroundings together with my brother in laws.

We cut all the shrubs and small trees which can't bear fruits and made a fence.

I used enterling wire for the fence. I think it's good to expand my garden.

There's always something very gratifying about eating creatures harvested from the sea. I bet they tasted good too !!
