Update: Thank you CA for telling me about the omitted letter. I hate it when I do things like that, especially with a teacher waiting in the wings holding a red marker pen in her hand.

Maps On Monday. The Entrance To San Francisco Bay.

Shawn, take a look at the chart. This is why waves wrap around the point into the cove at (almost) 90 degrees. It's a good place to surf (if you like big rocks, crazy swells, cranky surfers, playing with strong tides and currents....not me).

The chart also shows you why you don't want to sail between the south tower of the Golden Gate Bridge and Fort Point.

You remember Capt. Joe Schidmt. He learned how to surf the hard way.

To quote the Puffin, "Munchola!"

Monster Monday. Attack Of The Killer Jellyfish!

Is this from a Japanese 60's movie?
You remember Matango (Attack of the Mushroom People). Spooky!

The trawler, the Diasan Shinsho-maru, capsized off Chiba`as its three-man crew was trying to haul in a net containing dozens of huge Nomura's jellyfish. More here.
