Fishing’s out! There’s still much light about but all the boats are moored near the makeshift jetty. Maybe, they have returned early from sea due to a good harvest of they might be having a bad day with no catch at all. Or the seas may be too rough for these small boats. Whatever, for the fishermen, it is something to be thankful for, to be back or at home safely. The waters are murky tea-coloured because of accumulated sediments, either natural or from irresponsible residents of the colony of stilt-houses.
