Wow! starting to sound a bit conservative there.

You would think local fishermen would know some of the basic rules of boatsmanship and fishing, but apparently not all of them are so disposed. The other morning I watched while 2 pangas of fishermen carefully located and closed in on a school of baitfish just off the beach. Just as they were getting their castnets ready to throw, 2 other pangas came zooming across the bay at full speed hoping to also benefit from the school of fish the first two boats had found, but all they did was of course scare away the fish, and I'll guess they also pissed off the fishermen in first two pangas who had actually located the fish and who were seconds away from catching some of them when the speeding demons showed up. It never ceases to amaze me to watch folks who should be professionals at what they do act like brutish amateurs. Some of the local taxi and bus drivers also evoke that same sentiment.

The fishermen's market appears to be bustling with activity, but unfortunately upon closer inspection most of the fish are so small the fishermen should not have been allowed to catch them since the local banks of fish are being fished out, and now local fishermen want the government to buy them new boats because they say they need to go out farther now to continue bringing home enough catch to make ends meet. If my business does poorly because I don't reinvest in new and better equipment I have no one to blame or to rely on but myself, but apparently fishermen are different.

The Museo Arqueológico de la Costa Grande was originally the Palacio Federal until about 30 years ago, and it was where the telegraph and post office was as well as other federal offices including Migración were located.
