an unexpected companian

Woke up to our babies barking out the window. They sure keep us safe. It's cute when they peek their head out the window and then scare you right up with the barking. You are trying to stay in bed but they just wont let you. I wonder if they also scare the people passing by?

Picked up shells today. Tried to pick the strangely unique ones but I think others wake up earlier to get them first. Stayed on the beach as long as we could until we both started to get headaches. That's our cue. Have you ever beat the beach? Ask heather next time you see her to demonstrate how that is done.

Came back and took a well deserved nap. Heading out to the strip and Heather has been talking about this place we should try. It's called Wanna Wanna. It's a restaurant slash inn. Towards the back of the island. It was a perfect spot to sit down and eat as you look out on the beach. It felt so calming and relaxing. Found out this was the place to be. Everyone was friendly. The way the island should always be, filled with people that love to say hello and want to engage in other human acknowledgement. Once we were there we didn't want to leave. We wondered out of all the years we've been here how come we hadn't stopped here before. If ever on the island please stop here, I highly recommend it. You eat outside but the breeze of the ocean keeps you cool.

Who would have thought that with the other people at Wanna Wanna we would have a visitor greet us by our table. How did he know Heather is a cat person. He laid by her feet. Looked like we had trained this cat to be like a dog and stay, at least that's what some people thought when they saw him.

Decided to say the heck with it and stopped by one of our first stops many years ago, a gelato ice cream shop. I had a coffee gelato and Heather had a coconut mocha drink, deliciousness. Then we ate our deserts as we reminisced on the past. We have so many memories here.

Today was better than the first days. We realized that I'm getting old. I'm starting to think like the older generation. When I asked the question, do I look old?  She replied, you kind of look like you are getting there, and I felt it.

Want to give a little tip from experience. If you ever seat at an eatery by the lake or beach always check your seat. I sat down not seeing the water that was on my chair and got my butt wet. Yeah someone that had just got out of the water, sat down, enjoyed a drink and left leaving a puddle of  water on the chair.
