The Cardis Holds 2,968 Goldfish

Or thereabouts. I confess I'm keeping them safe in their containers and haven't counted each one individually. Plus, there's still room for 1 driver, up to 4 sailors, and several bags of luggage. Well, the luggage space depends on finding a place other than the Cardis for the the largest of the wood tool chests that followed me home from Michigan. In addition to the "where" question, that trick also requires removing most of the tools inside as it's currently too heavy to lift.

While this remarkable, fishy feat may come as no surprise to those who have seen or heard about the Cardis in action over the years, I do feel it only fair to observe that some of the Goldfish are whole grain, while the rest are xtra cheddar. It's only two cartons worth; they hardly take up any room at all.

One of my kids loves the Extreme Cheddar Goldfish. The other flavours, not so much.

Have you ever thought of hiring yourself out as a car stuffer? Your skills at fitting stuff into a small car are impressive.

Much appreciated, Kuma Bear. The fishes are for sailors, but you're enough of a world traveller that I will see if I can snag a few for you, too.

You totally got me -- I was picturing the Cardis as a sort of giant goldfish bowl, with plastic bags filled with water and live fish, right up until I read the last paragraph... ;-)
