Today we got up like 8:30am!!! And took Lexie for a long walk which she enjoys a lot, as there is a great walking areas here!!!! We then decided to get our tandem bike off the boat and cruise around town for a while. We visited the Sanford museum and lots of cute little old town shops, visited the welcome center for a few brochures of things we would like to do while we are in the area. A beautiful day when we started out 70 degrees but soon began to misty rain. We were just glad it was not freezing!!! I have attached some pics of things we saw and learned about the area. We rode about 2 hours and then returned to the boat to have lunch and rest up as the street party in Sanford was tonight!!!
We walked down with Paula and Jim to the blocked off street where MANY venders of all the town shops set up tents and had a chili cookbook at this monthly event called "ALIVE after FIVE". You purchase a $7.00 wrist band and walk the street and try all the venders chili!! We certainly got our $7.00 worth!! Also had ice cream samples, popcorn, a plate of fish with coleslaw and tarter sauce. Wow, I thought a real deal and even though it was still misting rain the whole evening we still had a great time. Back to the boat for showers and rest up after the long stroll of which all of us agreed we did not walk off many calories from one cup of chili till the next booth served us another one!! Ha.
Fun evening!! very laid back day, but I guess that is what snow birds do when they go south for the winter!!! Ha Enjoying everyday!!!!
I have attached a few pics I took today, hope you enjoy!!!
Love to all, Ms. Fran and Capt Rod
