HOME AGAIN

We slept in some today.  Walking the boards all day and staying up so late last night did us in.  But it was worth every minute because we had such a great time.

We just went to Fresco for breakfast again.  The food and service is so good there.  We both had eggs and homefries.  I had bacon and Joe had ham.

As we were going back to the room we met Karen and Bud who were just getting up.  They were headed for Fresco.  They were up earlier but thought we had already left for breakfast.  We were waiting for them to get up.  We could have had breakfast together.  Oh well.

We packed everything up, loaded up the car, and checked out.  Karen and Bud were going to walk the boards for awhile, but Joe was beat.  He just wanted to go home.  I wanted to go to Fudge Kitchen to get some stuff to bring home.  It was right at the top of the ramp where we were parked, so Joe stayed in the car and I went up to get the things and take one last look at the ocean.

It was a lot more crowded today.  It seems a lot of people had come down for the weekend.  The lady at the front desk of the hotel said that the entire first floor was sold out and almost all of the second.  The machines on the beach were gone and part of it was open to the public.




The boardwalk was really crowded.  There were these yellow pendants hung along the side of the boards.

There was a large kite being flown.  The tail was like a corkscrew going around and around.  I tried to get a picture of it but this was the best I could do.

We used the GPS and ended up going home a different way than we ever had before.  It turned out to be easier and faster.  Hmm....

By this time it was about 2 p.m. and we were both hungry so we stopped in Sonic when we got home.  Yum.

I unpacked the car and we both ended up taking naps.  We are beat!

When we got up we went to Target to get Joe something to wear to church tomorrow.  He has lost so much weight that his clothes are all too big for him.  His pants keep falling down!  Not good for church.  He got a black pair and a gray pair and saw a black and gray tie that he really liked.  I saw a dress I liked and he got that for me too.  It's a pretty blue with tiny white polka dots.

We just had hot dogs for dinner.  We are both so full from lunch.  Joe has gone to bed and as soon as the wash is done, I will be joining him.  It has been a fun weekend.  And there is still more to come.

  1. Glad you had a good last morning and made the trip home ok. Enjoyed your photos again. I was shopping Friday for birthday present for my little granddaughter who is gonna be 5 yrs old. Found a couple cute tops and art supplies, since likes to draw. Bought Phil a couple of shirts since some are wearing out. He wears short sleeves all year long so this is time of year to get them. Will be getting more thru the next few months. That was nice of Joe to get you a dress. Have a good Sun. Hugs!
