rebel, is I was a youngin, I would love to go sailing like that and travel that way. How fun. And yes, I would eat a lionfish. Yes, you need gloves to clean them! Good grief.
The strangest thing I've eaten is Octopus. Loved it! The only thing is, everyone that had that for their meal in Mexico that night, got sick. That Octopus hadn't been kept fresh. :/ Only sick that night, thank goodness.but it did taste yummy!

Here is the steam engine on the pedestal of his statue, before and after cleaning:

My son got over that. He'd complain and I'd eat his food.
