Life’s supposed to be an adventure, a surprise!
I didn’t begin the day with a blog in mind. You never know when life will throw surprises your way.
Starting with this morning.
Gazing out the patio doors I spied a lot of pelicans. Now a friend had previously mentioned that often means there are also dolphins. So true. There, right in front of me, was a beautiful dolphin pod. Maybe 15- 20, swimming, jumping, playing, and I’m assuming eating. Some very close. Others further out. What a joy!
Off to a new breakfast spot, Duck’s Diner.
Great little spot. Very popular. We arrived at 8:10 and shortly after that the place was hopping with families, couples, and a large men’s group who made me think of how at home some gather at Tim’s, McDonald’s etc.
Comfortable seating, clean, friendly servers, and good food.
Bottom: My bacon and cheese omelet, fruit, and biscuit
Love that they give you options: either fruit, hash browns, hash browns casserole, grits, or yogurt, plus either biscuit, toast,or English muffin.
My only complaint, as you can see from the picture, is my biscuit was very, very well done. I have to admit this was my first experience having a crusty, crunchy biscuit.
Not a fancy place. Plastic plates but much better than paper plates. And they don’t create garbage and they don’t break. I’m ok with that. Not a place where you’d sit and linger a long time. But good food at a good price and we were needing to be finished quickly to be off to our next place.
Foley Snowbird’s Coffee Event
Long line to get it. Should have arrived earlier. Richard’s shouldering the blame. I wanted to leave home earlier but he said we had lots of time.
But while in the line I took this photo for my grandson.
Hmmm. Not nearly as good as last year’s. Fewer displays and gifts. I should be more appreciative. After all there was no cost. We passed on the coffee and Krispy Kreme doughnuts.
Best part by far.
The man in front of us was wearing this cap.
I nudged Richard wanting him to ask where he was from.
SURPRISE
Prince Edward Island.
What?
Yes yes yes
Imagine that.
Then imagine their surprise when we said us too.
The man told Richard he was from Abram’s Village but the woman told me Wellington. Close enough I guess.
They winter in Florida. Have been since 2010. They stay for four months. Lucky them.
But really. How bizarre to meet others from little old PEI.
That made my day.
On a side note Richard talked to a couple yesterday at the gym from Thunder Bay, Ontario and today we were driving behind a car with a Quebec license plate.
Small world.
