It was a clear night tonight, so there were no coelacanths out. But I did some fishing anyway. There are only a few days left before the sea bass return, so I definitely intend to take advantage of that.

I saw a basketball and kicked it into the river. It’s so hard to resist doing that. Later on, I saw a volleyball. It met the same fate. I saw a huge shadow in the river, so I got my fishing rod out and caught an arapaima! The funny thing is, I just caught an arapaima earlier today in City Folk!

After unsuccessfully trying to glitch Candi and Static, I saw a balloon present. I followed it, but it didn’t get caught in a tree, and it floated north, over the railroad tracks and out of town. Bummer.

I sold the remainder of my fish and dropped off an old boot (I caught it when fishing) at the dump. Then I headed for home and ended my day.

I played the game for a few minutes this morning. I went and sold my fish from yesterday, then I walked over by the waterfall. And there it was…a rainbow! It’s the first time I’ve ever seen the rainbow. Apparently they show up in the morning on clear days when it rained the day before. I rarely play in the morning, so that’s why I never saw it before.

Update: Here is a video of the rainbow:

It was raining again in Forest tonight. So I went to the ocean to do some fishing. I filled up my inventory with fish and caught four coelacanths. Unfortunately, Nook’s had just closed, so I couldn’t sell my fish. I need to try to play a little earlier, so I can fish for longer. I just hope it’s raining again when I do.

Note: Referring to coelacanths as “coco” is an inside joke I used to have with some of my Wi-Fi friends (namely Allie) from when ACCF first came out. Anytime it rained or snowed, we’d say we were going coco hunting.
