ARRIVED

“Wherever you go becomes a part of you somehow.” 
Anita Desai

And Gulf Shores has become a part of us. I felt it as soon as we drove down the 59. Not the same feeling I get crossing the Confederation Bridge to PEI but similar.

Slept in this morning.

Until 5:00. 😂

On the road at 5:30.

Other years the first hour of the drive was foggy. After the fiasco yesterday we were blessed today. Great weather (no fog) and light traffic.

First Alabama sights.

The only problem on the drive was finding radio stations. Choices: Country, religious, or sports. What to do? Solution? Connected Richard’s phone to the radio and listened to “Who Dunnit’s” on the BBC”. They sure pass the time.

Now those who know me know when I arrive I unpack immediately. Get ‘er done.

Unbelievably today I didn’t. 17C.

Work later. Sit in the sun. Water was incredibly warm.

(Of course I got everything put away before the end of the day.)

And the bonus?

We saw dolphins. In the Gulf right in front of us. How sweet is that.

Great way to start our stay here.

The only downside about being here? How much will we have to hear about the ‘orange guy’.
