Love all those mussels on the rocks! The first time I saw mussels like that was on that beach we went to after meeting you at Nicau cafe. We took the quad bike & rode along the beach to some flat rocks with mussels on like this. They look amazing all sticking up like that.....great basket too!

@happypat Thanks Pat... yes there are these Mussel rock all along the coast, so they get pretty well picked over..
