Bananas on the Beach
Wednesday, thousands of bananas washed up in the Netherlands on two North Sea islands. At least six containers fell off a cargo ship in a storm and at least one burst open.

Be careful. First it was Cow on a Beach. Now Adam or Joe might start a whole series of blog posts of Fruit on the Beach.
