What a wonderful report! I was salivating just reading it. You guys can't possibly eat all that fish eek ? I can't seem to find the Stained Glass Pub on the maps, where is it located? I would love to try it in November. ~Jenn

Great report and I could not agree with you more with Casa Picasso & Capricorn. Two of the best places on AC for sure!

Hey Captain Jeff!

It was great to see you last week. Thanks again for breakfast. Glad you had a fabulous week.

I was lucky enough to meet Gay and David and can personally vouch for Gay's enormous blister. I was very impressed.

Let the record show that El Capitano Jeff owes me $10.00BZE for a small series of fishing bets we had on day 4 of his trip. I do not wish to harp on about this except to mention that the bets refer to fishing skills.

(Let the record also show that I paid up on the 2nd day when the El Capitano, Will and Steve all showed me what a rotten angler I am)
