Marathon, FL - 2/6 & 2/7 (days 8 & 9)

Sometimes I feel like a reporter on assignment in paradise. Well, this was another day just like the other 6 days we have been here .... simply beautiful!! I asked Ricki how to spell "gorgeous" (sp) but she thought I was talking about the babe in the pool and we couldn't agree and spell check says it is right. We got up late Sunday, had breakfast, went to the pool then back to the boat for the Super Bowl. The resort had a party but since we probably wouldn't make it past half time, opted to stay on board.
Today when we were having breakfast (about 11 a.m.) a strange bird was spotted across the canal from our boat. Don't have a clue what it is but it sure is UGLY.

Since Zzzipnet Mark helped us change our photo program so the pictures could be enlarged on the blog (thanks sis for letting us know), thought I would send out a few to test the program. Hope you don't mind my subject matter.




Make sure they enlarge properly and let us know. Tonight we went to dinner with the couple on the Grand Banks docked on our bow. Ash & Patty are both retired from government positions and have been coming here from Maryland for 9 years. After dinner they took us on a guided tour of the area which was very enjoyable. When we got back to the boat we had to walk off the Italian dinner and spotted these coconuts on a tree on the other end of our marina.

Tomorrow .... don't know yet what is in store except that we want to dinghy to the beach. We plan to stay here until the end of February and have an empty cabin if anyone wants to give this place a try.
