Iowna awakes to see Cash is gone and Daisy-chan is fixing a net for
fishing.

The sun is warm and she smells BREAKFAST!

A rotisserie has lots of mouses, all dressed out and spinning over the
fireplace. There is even a small bowl of romaine and endive where she
normally sits. She lines up and takes 2 mice back to her breakfast
bowl then listens to the other folks.

"Now, the western cove looks mighty fine today with fishes hopping but
they are mostly flying fish today. You want a net to catch them. The
eastern cove fish are on to us and seem to be swimming deep but we can
still tease them to the top with the right lures!

The fresh water streams are full of freshwater clams and crawdads."

Kittahs grab breakfast and head out to catch fresh food for the
celebration. Cash joins with a boat crew that has the flying fish.
He figures he might catch one! Daisy-chan heads off with a net and a
team to the eastern cove.

Iowna listens. She hears little air pops and goes to investigate the
sand and the sounds... She greets other littler kittahs doing the
same and they explain it is little but very delicious marine clams.
She grins and sets to digging.



Iowna finds the holes fill with seawater pretty fast which makes it
hard for the littlest Kittahs to get a clam out but at the same time,
makes it hard for her to sniff where to dig. With a little
organization, the little ones move to the side then alert when a flying
clam comes out behind her. She then stops and they bag it. She then
backfills that hole and starts another likely spot based on the little
kittahs. As their bags fill to overflowing, they take them to the
kitchen and add Iowna's name to their bag along with their own.

Meantime, Cash keeps trying to catch flying fish but with no success.
In fact at least once he makes a really good leap to catch one, and
fallls out of the boat! It's ok though, he is laughing and having a
fine time. Perhaps Bast as the locals believe, wants him to carry a few
trays to help set the tables for dinner.

Daisy-chan isn't having much luck either nor are her team. Some of the
others there are however on the eastern cove. She gets an idea when
she sees a fresh water stream. Taking a few kittahs and a bag, they
make a trip and get some crawdads. Using them as lures, the water
almost boils about them! Oh yeah!
