I
left for my usual long walk this morning because the Captain said
there would be no rain until 2p. And I only walked through a couple
of showers on the way back to meet him at a restaurant for lunch!
The
lunch spot was called Caffe Chocolat. They make lots of fresh breads
there and great desserts.
Their
building takes up the most of the block with only one other small
business on the end. In this building the Caffe also has a gift shop and an ice
cream parlor.
By
2p no rain had come so I left for a short walk. The sky over
the sail boats at the next dock looked heavy with rain....
There
is a City park near our marina where I took these bird photos. I am
guessing this first photo is a Great White Heron or Great Egret.
These
three seem to be the same kind of bird....White Ibis perhaps....
These
birds were interesting. There heads reminded me of vultures. Who
knows what they are? I thought they were Jabirus but they don't have
the red on their necks. I believe they are another type of Ibis.
The
thunder came and then the down pour.... I ran for the pavilion but
got soaked before I got there. A young couple biking had taken
refuge there also.
A
white out of rain came along the waterway nearly erasing the moored
boats from sight.
The
wind and rain tossed Miss gg around today...the Captain needed to
tightened the lines.
We are snuggled down tonight ….....looking
forward to the continuing Adventure after a few rainy days.
