Should also give a plastic bag. It's not like there is a shortage of those in the ocean.

That's more of a scavenger hunt style souvenir, fun for the kids

When I was a kid we used to collect "sea glass"

It wasn't until later that I learned it was just trash that looked pretty because it had been there a while

Aye, sea glass is cool though because humans have been throwing it in the ocean for thousands of years. So if you find a nice piece with rounded edges it could be really old!

Great work on the comic. I don't know what it is, but the bit about the keychain really gave the map part an extra punch and had me actual lol.

Just in case: this is not OC. I add [Not OC] to the title in communities where most posts are OC, I thought it was implied here.

Oh my bad. I saw the "poorlydrawnlines" in the top of the post on Sync and thought that was the username, but I guess it's the domain of the image? It was early and I hadn't had coffee yet.

Edit: yeah, that was it. I feel like the ".com" would go a long way for clarity.

I'm beginning to suspect that the crab might not be too fond of visitors 🤔

Ahh, the big blue. What’s it like?

What else is there to say? Watery? Salty?

That map joke was also in the second last episode of Futurama this season. Mapception?

In case it matters: this comic is from August 2019.
