Silver Iced
Hotel Del Coronado Ice Skating
El Grunionino
Throughout the year, the fish known as the grunion run in San Diego and much of California. Hotel Del Coronado Ice SkatingThis little silver fish reproduces by “running” up the beach during the high tide in the middle of the night. Literally thousands of the fish simply come storming up the beach with the waves to lay their eggs in the wet sand. It kind of looks like the beginning of a triathalon except the participants are going the wrong way and are pregnant.
The fish picked up their name from Spanish settlers because of, well, the grunting noise the make when doing their thing. It is a bit saucy now that I think about it. Anyway, the grunion averages five inches in length and has a silvery hue that shows in the moonlight. With thousands in the water, it looks like the a really fat person wearing way to many sequins while dancing to disco music.
You’re Inner Barbarian
“Fishing” for grunion requires you to get in touch with your inner barbarian. Under California law, you are not allowed to use bait, hooks, poles, nets or anything. Instead, you must physically catch the grunion with your hands. This, of course, results in you and others running around the beach like a crab while trying to snatch the grunions. They are exceedingly quick and slippery. You’ll be huffing and puffing before you know it.
Grunion are an extremely plentiful fish, but there are still rules to follow. As mentioned above, you have to go mano-a-fisho. No poles, nets or other items can be used. Second, you have to get a fishing license from the California Department of Fish and Game. Third, you can only go grunion hunting from May to September, the legal season in the area.
If you think getting in touch with your inner fishing barbarian sounds like a good time, here is the scoop on good spots. In San Diego, you should hit the beaches in Del Mar, La Jolla, Mission Beach or in front of the Hotel Del Coronado. These are all high end areas, which means the grunion must have excellent taste.
Running around the beach like a madman can be tiring. Bringing along fluids [okay, beer] is highly recommended.

Is it true that Ice Silver psp2 has lesser finger prints and less scratches than Black?
I want to get a psp2 for my birthday and I was wondering which color to get. Black looks more sleek but it isnt a console package yet like ice silver. I’m not into blue or all those other colors that are coming out.
So is it true that Ice Silver is better than the piano Black color one because it scratches less and less finger prints?
Which color is better?
Do you think the final fantasy package is going to come out soon?
The silver hides scratches very well.. Better than the black ones..
Back ones look much better than the silver ones. No doubt about that.
