have you ever lost your jewellery at the beach?
during my first days in provo i spent a lot of time at grace bay beach, and remember seeing a man with a metal detector passing by all the time.
i have now found his website, he looks for lost jewellery and tries to return it to the owners by posting it on his website! How nice is that!
Read here for the stories of returned jewellery!
we were astonished when we saw a couple at the beach last weekend grabbing a starfish from the sea and placing it in their backpack…
it might be very tempting for some to take such a beautiful creature as a souvenir back home – but what if everyone decides to do the same?
when we see them grabbing another one, once again we ask if the starfish was dead or alive – we have been living here for a while and have never found a dead starfish on the sea.
we nicely explained that there is a lot of work done by decr in the island to protect marine life, and how the increase of tourists is great for the economy but dangerous if they don’t respect marine life…they then placed both starfish back under water.
