The Energizer Bunny (my sister-in-law, Liz) likes to walk along beaches and collect pretty shells. She called some at Aitutaki day before yesterday.
Yesterday was very rocking-and-rolling because of winds and high seas. Last night—still lots of rolling—I woke up in the night and on my way back from our stateroom bathroom, I found one of her shells she had collected in Aitutaki on the far side of my bed where it must have fallen off the table and rolled across the carpeted floor 10 feet. I picked it up and put it on my bedside table. Next morning I got up and it was gone, so I warned your mother not to step on a loose shell rolling around and she said—“I almost stepped on it and I have picked it up and put it back on the counter.” Just now we found it on the floor again five feet away—and your mom said: “ I think it’s alive—there is something in it!” Well, the hermit crab is now in a glass with a little bit of sea salt from our balcony dissolved in a little water. We are trying to decide the next step for returning it to a suitable habitat.
